One Film, Many Posters: Keeping Up With Ranbir Kapoor’s Makeover in Sanju

Ranbir Kapoor totally looks like Sanjay Dutt's doppelganger.

‘One man, many lives’ declared the film’s first poster, and the promotional strategy adopted by the producers pay homage to that very tagline. Written and directed by Rajkumar Hirani and produced by Vidhu Vinod Chopra, Ranbir Kapoor-starrer Sanju is one of the most anticipated films of 2018.

The film also stars Anushka Sharma, Paresh Rawal, Sonam Kapoor, Dia Mirza, Karishma Tanna, Manisha Koirala and Vicky Kaushal in key roles. The teaser, which dropped on April 24, became a talking point primarily because of the physical transformation of Ranbir Kapoor as Sanjay Dutt.

And if the posters are any indication, it’s quite possible that the producers are just as much in awe of his makeover, as the public is.

Check them out:

Sanju was first arrested in 1993. In prison for 18 months. Could not get bail. A recreation of that time. #RanbirKapoor #RajkumarHiraniFilms @VVCFilms @foxstarhindi pic.twitter.com/JOL2W3pQaO
