Sanjay Dutt's close friend Sanjay Gupta put to rest all speculations regarding the future acting plans of the star, saying Dutt will resume shooting for Alibaug in Mumbai. "Right now I'm in Goa shooting with the entire cast of Alibaug barring Sanju. But he joins us later in Mumbai to complete his work."

Sanjay has already completed one schedule of Alibaug in Mumbai after which he was incarcerated. Currently, he is expected to join the team later this month. Says Gupta, "There's absolutely no question of Alibaug without Sanjay Dutt. He's the film's backbone."

In the meantime, another of Dutt's friends, Bunty Walia, is going full-tilt with his plans of making Lamha with Sanjay.

"I'm giving Sanju a completely new look for Lamha. We start shooting next year," informs Bunty.
