Sanjay Dutt Diagnosed with Lung Cancer, Takes a Break for Treatment: Reports
As per reports, actor Sanjay Dutt has been diagnosed with lung cancer. He was recently admitted to a Mumbai hospital after breathing problem.

Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt, 61, has been diagnosed with lung cancer, reports Filmfare. The actor was recently admitted to Mumbai's Lilavati Hospital, but he was discharged in a day.

Film trade analyst Komal Nahta also tweeted the news.

When News18 contacted Dutt's team about the unconfirmed reports, they simply said, "we will issue a statement tomorrow."

Earlier in the day, Dutt, who was hospitalised in the weekend due to breathing problem and chest discomfort, conveyed to fans that he is taking a break. Dutt, 61, said he needed the break for medical treatment and urged fans not to pay attention to any other speculation.

"Hi friends, I am taking a short break from work for some medical treatment. My family and friends are with me and I urge my well-wishers not to worry or unnecessarily speculate. With your love and good wishes, I will be back soon," read the note Dutt shared on social media.

Upon being hospitalised on Saturday evening, the actor underwent a Covid-19 test that showed negative result.

Dutt is among the busiest actors in Bollywood. Last year, he was seen in three films--Kalank, Prassthanam and Panipat.

He will next be seen in Sadak 2, along with Alia Bhatt and Aditya Roy Kapur. Sadak 2 is a follow-up of Mahesh Bhatt's 1991 hit Sadak and is produced by his brother Mukesh Bhatt. The sequel reunites the original film's lead pair of Sanjay Dutt and Pooja Bhatt. Sadak 2 marks Mahesh Bhatt's return to filmmaking after 20 years.
