A Rajkumar Hirani film releases with huge expectations from trade and audience alike. The director commands a 100% track record at the box office, a feat that not many can boast about. His fifth directorial, tentatively titled Sanju, is four months away from its release, however, there is already a lot of curiosity around the film.

As expected, there is a huge demand for the film within the distribution section and the same has helped it fetch a huge amount towards the distribution rights. The worldwide distribution rights of Sanju has been sold to Fox Star Studio for a humongous sum of Rs 110 crore. Starring Ranbir Kapoor in lead, the film is a biopic of controversial Bollywood actor, Sanjay Dutt and the team in the past confirmed that the movie won’t glorify the actor.
