Sanjay Dutt's look in one of the films that the actor and the filmmaker worked together earlier. But Gupta says that it was his co-producer Sachiin Joshi who actually suggested this look for Irrfan.
Talking about Irrfan's look, Sachiin says, "When Sanjay (Gupta) was narrating the script of
Jazbaa to me, I was listening intently. And I felt that the Irrfan's character was very close to how Sanjay Dutt's character was in
Aatish. I called Gupta the next morning and suggested to him that we should attempt to style Irrfan's character on similar lines Sanjay Dutt in
Aatish!"
Jazbaa, produced by Essel Vision Productions Ltd, White Feather Films and Viiking Entertainment, releases October 9.
