Many Bollywood stars have committed themselves to campaign for Sanjay Dutt as he battles for Lucknow seat in the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections.

According to reports, Anil Kapoor, Arshad Warsi, Ajay Devgan, Suniel Shetty and Amisha Patel have already assured their presence during the campaigns in Lucknow.

This is even before Dutt has got the green signal from the Supreme Court to contest the Lok Sabha elections.

Dutt is the Samajwadi Party’s nominee for the prestigious Lucknow Lok Sabha seat. But, his entry into politics awaits the Supreme Court nod, necessary because of an anti-terror court convicting him under the Arms Act for stocking arms ahead of the 1993 Mumbai bombings. Dutt, who is currently camping in Lucknow, is enjoying his hectic political schedule. “It’s a hectic schedule. I’ve rallies and meetings from 8 am to 11 pm. But I’m enjoying myself. Yes, I’m learning to be comfortable addressing crowds,”
Among the leading stars who have already put a sizeable chunk of their time aside to follow Dutt on his campaign trail in Lucknow are Anil Kapoor, Ajay Devgan, Arshad Warsi and director David Dhawan.

“You’ve got the names right. The people you’ve mentioned are already on. We didn’t even have to ask them,” said Dharam Oberoi, CEO of Sanjay Dutt Films. “We will approach other friends as soon as Dutt is cleared by the court. All his life Dutt has been there for the film industry and I’m sure the industry would love to come forward for him now,” Oberoi told a news agency. “We feel Sanju will be the first Bollywood star in the Parliament who will work selflessly for the improvement of the film industry. The others have had divided interests or none at all,” said a source close to the Munnabhai star.
Another star game to rally behind Dutt is his close friend Suniel Shetty.

“Anytime Baba wants me I’m there for him. He just has to tell me when to come to Lucknow,” said Shetty.
