During his appearance on The Great Indian Kapil Show with Suniel Shetty, Sanjay shared that he formed a theatre group while in jail, with murder convicts as his actors.

Life in Yerwada Jail

Sanjay Dutt was in Pune’s Yerwada Central Jail from 2013 to 2016. He said he doesn’t regret what happened in his life, except losing his parents too early. While in prison, Sanjay kept himself busy with carpentry work, making furniture and paper bags for wages.

He even started a radio station called Radio YCP, which played only inside the jail. Along with other inmates, he hosted programs that included discussions and comedy.
