Well, it is difficult to squeeze in every life detail into two hours, especially when there is so much on the ground to cover. Sanju tries to portray Sanjay as a wholeheartedly family man, but that wasn’t always the case.

I can’t explain it but it’s… normal.” Another Insta user asked her, “What’s the best thing you learned from your dad?”, and she wrote, “how to tell guys who waste my time and treat me like shit to F*** off.” (Also Read: Sanjay Dutt Is On A Vacation With Family, Maanayata Dutt Twins With Her Daughter Iqra Dutt)
Then she was asked, “How is it living without your parents?”, to which Trishala answered, “umm… It’s fine, I guess. I never lived with them to begin with (I did but I was so young I don’t remember much) so I can’t really answer how it feels living without them.” When further asked if she is more like mom or dad, she replied, “My attitude and temper is like my dad. My kindness, gentleness and loving side is from my mom. My giving side and style is from both my parents.”
While promoting Bhoomi, Sanjay Dutt shared how he wanted to break Trishala’s legs when she expressed her wish to work in films. He was quoted as saying, ''She has specialised in forensic science... And I think that’s the great thing to do. Even if she wants to join the industry, she has to learn Hindi because American (English) will not work here. It is not easy to be an actor. It looks easy but it is quite difficult. Trishala wanted to be an actress and I wanted to break her legs.”
On July 29, 2018, i.e., Sanjay Dutt’s birthday, Trishala took to her Instagram to wish her daddy dearest. She wrote, “Happy Birthday Daddy Dukes @duttsanjay — #teamleo #birthdayboy”.
