Hyderabad: Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt, who essayed the role of Adheera in Prashanth Neel's directorial KGF2, took to Instagram to share his experience on the film's set.

As the film completes a year, I am overwhelmed by the love and appreciation that we have received from all of you. Your support has been the driving force behind the success of KGF Chapter 2, and I cannot thank you enough for it. The film's success is a testament to the hard work and dedication of #KarthikGowda, #VijayKiragandur sir and the entire Hombale team, and I am proud to have been a part of it. #1YearOfKGFChapter2

Sanjay Dutt revealed that getting in shape for the role required a strenuous regimen. The actor said, "In addition to intense acting, a convincing physicality is needed to portray a negative character that will engage in difficult action sequences against the protagonist. To put it another way, I had to look the part in addition to acting the part." For the unversed, Sanjay Dutt was diagnosed with cancer in 2020, just before the release of his movie Sadak 2, alongside Alia Bhatt, Aditya Roy Kapur, and Pooja Bhatt.
