This
year,
suniel
shetty
will
not
be
celebrating
his
birthday
on
August
11.
His
close
friend
Sanjay
Dutt
is
in
jail
and
he
feels
there's
no
cause
to
celebrate
his
46th
birthday.
A
chat
with
Suniel
on
his
birthday,
Sanju
baba
and
turning
46.
Are
you
planning
a
party
this
year?
No.
I
won't
be
celebrating
this
year.
It's
been
a
bad
week.
I
will
be
in
Mumbai
but
there
won't
be
any
parties.
I
don't
want
to
celebrate
thinking
what
Baba
(Sanjay
Dutt)
must
be
going
through.
But
I
also
know
he's
God's
child
and
is
being
watched
over.
I
am
hoping
something
good
comes
out
of
it.
Are
you
planning
to
meet
Sanjay
at
Yerwada
jail?
If
I
can,
I
would
love
to.
That's
a
priority.
What
was
your
first
reaction
when
you
heard
about
his
judgment?
I
went
numb.
The
thought
of
Baba
being
in
jail
had
me
in
tears.
He
once
told
me,
'Anna,
I
am
tired.
I
won't
be
able
to
take
it
any
more.'
That's
the
only
thing
worrying
me
-
him
being
alone.
Baba
is
not
used
to
being
alone.
But
the
love
for
Sanjay
is
unbelievable!
I
get
up
in
the
morning
and
my
children
ask
me
if
Sanju
uncle
will
be
okay,
from
my
servants,
to
liftman
and
the
urchins
everybody
keeps
asking
me,
'Sanju
baba
theek
ho
jayege
na?'
They
think
we
will
know
but
they
don't
know
we
are
in
the
same
boat
and
just
keep
hoping
and
praying.
Have
you
been
in
touch
with
his
family?
Yes.
I've
called
to
ask
if
Sanju's
okay,
whether
he's
coping
and
eating.
I
am
worried
about
how
he's
feeling
right
now
and
if
he
is
strong
enough
to
hold
on.
When
he
does
that
he
will
be
fine.
I
spoke
to
him
on
his
birthday
(July
29)
and
asked
him,
'Baba,
what
do
you
think?'
and
he
said,
'Everything
will
be
fine'.
I
know
eventually
it
will
be.
God
has
his
own
way
of
showing
his
love
for
his
children.
Recently,
you
were
in
tears
at
Ajay
Nagrath's
exit
from
Biggest
Loser
Jeetega.
Yes.
I
got
emotional
at
Ajay's
exit
because
I
wanted
him
to
be
one
of
the
winners
-
at
least
in
the
top
3.
I
felt
he
was
unlucky.
Ajay
and
Sandeep
will
be
great
brand
ambassadors
for
the
show.
One
always
needs
a
hero
to
look
up
to
and
I
wanted
them
till
the
very
end.
How
old
will
you
be?
I
will
be
turning
46
and
am
proud
of
my
age.
I
don't
feel
old.
The
day
I
quit
my
pranks
I
will
feel
I'm
getting
old.
