Hakim also took to Facebook to share with his fans. He said, "My Dad Hakim Kairanvi created the look for Sanjay Dutt’s debut film Rocky 1981. I was truly honoured when I got the chance to recreate the same Rocky look of Sanju sir for Ranbir Kapoor in 2018. When I showed the pic of my Dad with Sanju to Ranbir, He got damn excited and we tried to recreate the same pic by giving the same pose. I really enjoyed creating all the looks for Ranbir for film Sanju, as I happened to be the hairstylist for Sanju sir in real life as well. Ranbir is a Rockstar and has pulled off all the looks so beautifully... It looks like he is wearing the skin of Sanjay Dutt... Hats Off. Also not many people know that Sanjay Dutt’s mundan(After Birth 1st Haircut) was also done by dad Hakim Kairanvi"
Sanju is a biographical film based on the life of actor Sanjay Dutt, directed and written by Rajkumar Hirani and produced by Vidhu Vinod Chopra. The film is set to be released on June 29.
