Mumbai: Ranbir Kapoor starrer Dutt biopic is one of the highly anticipated films of 2018. The Rajkumar Hirani directed upcoming film boasts a big star cast. Dia Mirza is all set to play Sanjay Dutt's wife Maanayata Dutt in reel life opposite Ranbir Kapoor.

In an interview with a leading daily, Dia spoke about working with Hirani and Ranbir as she said, "I have the deepest regard and respect for his sensibilities, and for the stories, he chooses to tell. And to work with the team and Ranbir [Kapoor] was deeply gratifying. I got to learn so much. It was one of the most positive work environments. To be a part of a biopic and essay the life of a real person and to experience the circumstances that they’ve lived in is everything an actor could ever ask for."
