Post the completion of his jail term, Sanjay Dutt’s first comeback with Bhoomi!

The rumours of Sanjay Dutt's comeback movie are widespread sometimes. The actor has been gearing up to start shooting for a new film post the completion of his jail term.

Presently, Sanju Baba as he is lovingly called will begin shooting for Omung Kumar's next. Titled Bhoomi, this movie will be the first outing for Sanjay and Kumar. Confirming the news, Sanjay revealed, "I have been looking for scripts that went beyond my screen persona. I wanted to do something vulnerable yet powerful. Bhoomi is an emotional and sensitive drama that explores the relationship between a father and daughter."

The actor will be seen in an unseen avatar and speaking about the movie, Omung told, "This one will keep the audience taut and on the edge of their seats. Bhoomi is an emotional, revenge drama that centers around the relationship between a father and daughter."

Bhoomi is set to go on floors next year in Agra in the month of February. The film will be co-produced by Bhushan Kumar and Sandeep Singh. Bhushan is thrilled about the film and told, "Sanjay Dutt's versatility as an actor will be on display with Bhoomi. I am personally looking forward to this film." And Sandeep added, "Baba ( Sanjay) believed in the script from the day he heard it and has been the driving force behind this film. Bhoomi is a story that will buckle the trend. We are delighted that Sanjay Dutt is making a comeback through Bhoomi."

After Mary Kom and Sarbjit, Bhoomi will be Omung's third directorial.
