MUMBAI: Bollywood star Sanjay Dutt says his daughter Trishala had acting dreams but he always wanted her to make a career in forensic science.
Dutt, 57, says he has invested a lot of time and energy in her daughter’s education and does not want her to join Bollywood.
“I’ve invested a lot of time and energy to put her in a good college and she has done very well. She has specialised in forensic science… And I think that’s the great thing to do,” said Sanju Baba.
When asked the reason, the Khalnayak actor said, “becoming an actor is not easy and for Trishala it is going to be tougher as she has to work on her Hindi. Even if she wants to join the industry, she has to learn Hindi because American (English) will not work here.”
Talking about his bond with his kids, the actor says, “I share a beautiful relationship with my children. I remember my father (Sunil Dutt) used to say, ‘I’m not your friend, I’m your father’. That’s the way I’m with my kids.”
Dutt says he missed being a part of the industry while he was in prison. “My experience with the industry has been fantastic. It is my family and when I was in jail, I missed every moment of being with them. I love everybody from the technicians, actors to directors. When I came back on the sets, it felt like I was back with my family.”
