Actor Sanjay Dutt has been sentenced to six years in prison for illegal possession of arms in connection with the 1993 Mumbai blasts case.

Last November he had been convicted for the illegal possession of a 9 mm pistol and an AK 56.

Dutt, who is one of the biggest, most powerful and popular stars of the Hindi film industry, is at the top of the game following the hugely successful Munnabhai series.

And with over Rs 50 crore invested in films starring Dutt, the industry is now more worried about his films on floor.

In fact, there are three films that are currently under production.

First, Inder Kumar's Dhamaal, which pairs Sanjay Dutt with Arshad Warsi, is complete. Although the promos are still not on air.

Then there's Dutt's venture with friend Sanjay Gupta Alibaug, which is 50 per cent complete.

Finally, there is Abbas Mustan's Mr Fraud with Ajay Devgan for which Dutt has not even started shooting.

Then there are other films for which the shooting hasn't started as yet - Sanjay Gupta's Aladdin and Kidnapped and Vidhu Vinod Chopra's third in the Munnabhai series, Munnabhai Chale America.

From the time the court convicted Sanjay Dutt in November last year, his two big films have enjoyed mixed responses.

Eklavya flopped at the box office, while Shootout at Lokhandwala was a huge hit.

Bollywood is now hoping for a positive outcome as Sanjay now moves SC to appeal against the judgement.
