Bꦡollywood actor Sanjay Dutt was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer in 2020. It was a challenging period for both the actor and his family. He has fought and emerged back stronger.

As per spotboye, Dutt revealed that he got the checkup done because of bre▨athlessness. There was water in his lungs so they initially suspected pneumonia, which turned out to be cancer. 

Dutt said, "How to break it to me, this was a big issue. I could have broken somebody's face. So, my sister came and told me. I said, 'Okay, I got cancer, now what?' Then you start planning things, will do this and that... But Iไ did cry for over two-three hours because I was thinking about my kids and my life and my wife and everything. These flashes come and I said, 'I am going to stop getting weak.’"

Dutt got help from director Rakesh Roshan’s doctor. He said, "They told me I'd vomit, so I told the doctor 'mereko kuch nahi hoga', I'll not lose hair, I'll not vomit, I won't lie on the bed, and she kind of smiled. I did my chemothඣerapy, and I came back and I sat💝 on that bike for one hour and I cycled, I did that day after day, every day. After every chemo session I did that. It was crazy." 

Few months post his diagnosis, on the occasion of his kids, Iqra and Shahraan’s, ꦡbirthday Dutt announced that he is cancer free. He shared a heart touching note.
