When Sunil Dutt had entered Bollywood, Nargis was already an established artist and was one of the most sought-after actresses of that time. Sunil Dutt was head-over-heels in love with Nargis ji but was not sure to express his feelings, for the fear of being rejected. The two had first met on the sets of Do Bigha Zameen but it was while filming the iconic film, Mother India when Sunil Dutt and Nargis had felt the spark and expressed their love. They had gotten secretly married on March 11, 1958.
On March 11, 2021, Sanjay Dutt took to his IG handle and penned a heart-melting note on his parents, Nargis and Sunil Dutt’s wedding anniversary. Sharing an adorable picture of them, Sanjay revealed what his parents taught him about love. His caption along with the picture can be read as “Both of you taught me the real meaning of love. Happy Anniversary Mom & Dad” followed by a heart emoticon.

Nargis was categorised among one of the top-notch actresses of her era. But the stunning actress had left her superstardom to bring up her kids, Priya, Namrata and Sanjay. Sanjay was quite close to his mother and her untimely death had left a deep wound in his heart. Do you know that Nargis Dutt had passed away just three days before the release of Sanjay’s debut film, Rocky. In a 2018 interview with India Today, Sanjay had talked about his mother and had shared, "The most important thing is to be a good human being. Everything else comes after that. I learned from both my father and mother. I'm passing on to my kids. I hope my wife doesn't pamper my children the way my mother did me. My wife tells me if the kids don't hate the parents when they are growing up, there is something wrong in their parenting. I am tough to my children when I want to be tough."
In an interview with the HT brunch, Sanjay Dutt had shared that he wanted to be a strict father when his wife, Manyata Dutt was pregnant but when he saw his kids, he realised he could never be that. The actor loves spoiling them and in the same interview, he had shared, "When Manyata was pregnant, I always thought I would be a damn strict dad. But with them, I just can’t be that! Although I do spoil them a bit, I make sure that when Manyata is scolding them, I don’t become the peace broker. I don’t interfere. It is wrong to play good cop/bad cop. But yes, after two-three hours, dad might get them a box of chocolates."
