MUMBAI: Sanjay Dutt made a spectacular entry in Hindi cinema with 1981 film "Rocky" and later headlined films such as "Vidhaata", "Imaandaar", "Jeete Hain Shaan Se", "Ilaaka", "Taaqatwar" and "Thaanedar". But playing Ballu in Subhash Ghai's super hit "Khal Nayak" gave him an opportunity to experiment with his choices, instead of restricting himself to good guy roles.
