Sanjay goes from gangster to conman 
The chance to play one of the world's most famous conman, Charles Sobhraj,
has led Sanjay Dutt to agreeing to playing the lead character, Charles, in
People Pictures forthcoming thriller, Charles and I. The under production
movie, has director Prawal Raman, who has earlier directed Darna Mana Hai
and "Gayab", at the helm of affairs. It tells the story of the enigmatic
criminal, who sent the police forces on a wild goose chase in more than half
a dozen countries.
Talking about choosing Sanjay for the lead role, Prawal, who has also
written Charles & I, says, "Charles is a complex character, a charming man
with a dangerous mind and even more dangerous intentions. Finding the right
actor who has the ability to exude all these qualities at the same time was
a tough call. We were looking for an actor that radiates star power coupled
with the finest acting prowess to portray Charles. The only actor in my
opinion who fit that profile was Sanjay Dutt and I am glad he's doing the
film." Sanjay on the other hand is excited about the role. "It's a great
role and I look forward to working on the film," he says.
