In both Ram Gopal Varma's Department and Anand Kumar's Zilla Ghaziabad he plays a cop based on real-life characters. "Since both the real-life cops are dead, Dutt has asked for a reality check on their past history... pictures, documents.... Never before has Sanjay Dutt taken such a keen interest in character detailing. He wants both the roles to be real cops and different from one another in personality and appearance," said a source.

Last week Dutt summoned the Zilla Ghaziabad producer Vinod Bachchan to see how his character had shaped up. "Yes, Dutt Saab asked to see his look and presence. So I made a special trailer of the film and took it to him," said Bachchan.

For Department, Dutt is even taking interest in the technical details. "I've always believed he has one of the strongest screen presences. For the first time in his career he is playing a very realistic character," said Varma.
