Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt beat cancer. In 2020, Sanjay was diagnosed with stage-4 lung cancer. When Sanjay was diagnosed with cancer, the family was shocked. But Sanjay Dutt faced such a difficult time with great courage.

Not only did he stand strong, but he did not allow his family members to fall on an emotional level. But initially, Sanjay Dutt was not at all ready to undergo cancer treatment.

Sanjay Dutt attended a hospital event with sister Priya on Wednesday. At that time, Sanjay told everyone the story of his difficult time. Doctors who treated Sanjay Dutt were also present on this occasion. What was your first reaction when you found out that you were diagnosed with cancer?

'I was having back pain at that time. I was taking treatment at home by giving a shake with a hot water bottle. Was pushing the day with pain killers. But one day I could not breathe. I was admitted to the hospital but was not told that I had cancer. I was completely alone in the hospital.

'My wife, family, sister were not with me at that time. I was alone and suddenly a person came and told me that I had cancer. My wife was in Dubai. So Priya came to me. There is a history of cancer in my family.

My mother also had cancer. Wife Richa Sharma died of brain cancer. So when I found out I had cancer, I was told first that I would not undergo chemotherapy. It was said that if I want to die, I will die but will not take any treatment,' said Sanjay.

Sanjay said that Bollywood director Rakesh Roshan suggested a doctor for cancer treatment. At that time we had to face with a lot of courage. Sanjay also said that he was ready to undergo treatment only and only for the sake of his family.

'I have seen my family fall apart and one night I decided that if I stay sick, the family will fall too. So I decided to fight for my family," said Sanjay.

Sanjay Dutt said that he did not hide anything from the world about his illness. I have never lied about cancer. People don't want to publicize this. But regardless of career etc. I told everyone without compromise and went ahead. I am right to talk about this.

Talking about Sanjay Dutt's current project, he was recently seen in 'Shamshera'. This movie could not do anything special at the box office. But many movies of Sanjay are going to be released in the coming time. Sanjay Dutt currently works in South cinema along with Hindi.
