"Jazbaa" director Sanjay Gupta has shot down rumours that actor-friend Sanjay Dutt has a guest appearance in the upcoming film.
The rumours were sparked by Dutt's special visit to the set of the film that marks the comeback of actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.
Calling the speculation "bizarre," Gupta tweeted, "BAAVLE ho gaye hain kya sab? (Has everyone gone mad?) Where do these bizarre rumours even stem from?" He also retweeted an apparent clarification by Dutt's spokesperson.
