Papa, Sanjay Says No to Trishala Acting Career

After Nargis Dutt, ladies from Dutt family have not pursued any kind of filmy career. It would be surprising, if Trishala Dutt, daughter of Sanjay Dutt and Richa Sharma Dutt will have that liberty. Trishala Dutt, who has done her majors in criminal justice and has specialized in forensic science.  However, few of them know that she also has dabbled in acting by taking short-term courses with the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute in New York. Talking about her Bollywood career, she says,

“My dad has never said ‘no’ to me for Bollywood. Yes, I know he would not approve. But he does have a soft spot for me, so I think it will be okay later on.” Her dad, Sanjay, however, categorically says, “It’s news to me. She hasn’t discussed her future plans with me. Anyway, my dad would have been completely against her becoming an actress!”

Sanjay Dutt, who also doesn’t want that his daughter should join Bollywood, says,

“I am not supportive of her becoming an actress,” he says, adding, “In the Dutt family line, women have never been actresses – including my sisters Namrata and Priya. My mom (Nargis) gave up acting when she got married and was a devoted mother and housewife and so was Richa (his first wife).”

Sanjay Dutt’s father Sunil Dutt was also clear about her daughters not to join films. A close source says,

“Sanju is very clear about Trishala not joining films. He says his dad never allowed daughters Priya and Namrata to become actresses. The late Dutt Sr’s wife Nargis was a great actress but once she became a Dutt she left her career at her peak. The same thing happened with Trishala’s mother Richa. Whatever little career she had, she had to give up once she became Mrs Dutt. Sanju never allowed Maanayata to pursue an acting career even when they were dating.”

Namrata’s daughters Sanchi and Sia don’t harbour filmi aspirations either. The Dutts have always been very conscious about this and the rule has been laid down for the Dutt women right from the beginning”.

In-fact, Sanjay also told Maanayata that if they have a daughter, she has to know right from the beginning that an acting career is not an option.
