{ "title": "Sanjay Dutt Breaks Silence on 25-Year Legal Delay: 'My Family Was Threatened, It Shouldn't Have Taken So Long'", "article": "Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt has opened up about the emotional toll of his five-year prison sentence, which he served under the Arms Act before being released in 2016. In a recent podcast appearance, Dutt reflected on the fear and uncertainty his family faced during the tumultuous period of 1993. He described the atmosphere as chaotic and unpredictable, affecting not just him but those closest to him. Dutt's family was targeted by threats, with his father and sisters being intimidated. Despite the lack of evidence, Dutt was convicted under the Arms Act without a gun being found. He expressed frustration that it took 25 years for the authorities to realize their mistake. Despite the hardships, Dutt used his time in prison to focus on personal growth. He credits his experience with teaching him valuable lessons about the law, and he even went on to read extensively on the subject. Dutt also used his time to explore his spirituality, reading sacred texts such as the Bhagavad Gita and the Ramayana. What troubled Dutt the most, however, was the slow pace of the legal system. He witnessed many inmates lose valuable time waiting for their cases to progress. Dutt's comments come as he prepares to return to the big screen in the upcoming film Dhurandhar, set to release on 5 December alongside Ranveer Singh, Akshaye Khanna, and R. Madhavan."
