In the promo, Sanjay Dutt became emotional while talking about his parents, Narigis and Sunil Dutt. He also shared how he realised the importance of spending time with his parents; and added that this realisation dawned upon him only after their demise. “In fact, at that time my mother used to invite me to chat with her for a while, to spend some time with her. She always said that I didn’t know when she would leave, but I didn’t listen to her at that time. If I had listened to her then, I would have spent some time with her,” said Sanjay Dutt on the show.
