They say there aren't any permanent friends and enemies in Bollywood. After Department's disappointing run on the box office, director Ram Gopal Varma and lead actor Sanjay Dutt got embroiled in an unpleasant public spat. But now the friends-cum-foes have buried their differences and feature patched up.
RGV had openly spoken against Sanjay Dutt and his manager Dharam Oberoi after the failure of Department. RGV also added that greater than Dutt it was Dharam who was liable for creating trouble for Department and likewise spoiling Dutt's name. The spat led to the ouster of Dharam Oberoi because the CEO of Sanjay Dutt Productions.
Reportedly, choreographer and filmmaker Ahmed Khan jumped in and worked out the reconciliation between Sanjay Dutt and RGV. Ahmed may be very with reference to both Sanjay and Ramu. Ramu had given Ahmed his first big break in Rangeela, when Ahmed was just 19 years old and Sanjay is like an older brother to Ahmed so he couldn't see them fighting. He and another common friend Rafi Kazi tried to patch them up.
Ahmed convinced Sanjay to name RGV; reportedly the 2 spoke for some time and sorted out their differences.
RGV tweeted, "DO NOT KNOW if dharam is out of sanjays life but when true its the most productive news I heard cos he's more dangerous for sanjay than the 93 blast case…Its weeds which ruin structures nd I'M supremley glad the dutt realized."
"More than for checking out my differences with Sanjay I'M happy that the Evil disease is out of Sanjays life," he added further.
