In a separate tribute, Sanjay Dutt's sister Priya Dutt also remembered her father on his death anniversary with an emotional social media post celebrating his legacy and values. "Some people leave behind memories. Some leave behind a legacy. And then there are a rare few, like my father, Sunil Dutt, who leave behind humanity itself as their greatest gift to the world," Priya Dutt wrote. Remembering him as a compassionate father and public figure, she added, "On your death anniversary, I don't just remember the actor or the leader people respected and admired. I remember the father whose strength was always wrapped in kindness, whose presence made us feel safe, and whose compassion touched everyone who crossed his path." Priya Dutt also shared a video montage featuring rare family photographs, clips from award ceremonies, and unseen moments from the lives of Sunil Dutt and actress Nargis. Widely regarded as one of Hindi cinema's most respected personalities, Sunil Dutt starred in classics such as 'Mother India', 'Waqt', 'Padosan' and 'Sadhna'. Beyond cinema, he also made significant contributions to public service and politics, serving as a Congress MP for Mumbai North West for five consecutive terms. His final screen appearance came in 'Munna Bhai M.B.B.S.' alongside Sanjay Dutt, a film that remains cherished by audiences even today. (ANI)
