Sanju, Jacky: Cola ho!

Sanjay Dutt

Here comes Madhu my Mottu Maid, with my Oolong green tea and with the news that Sanjay Dutt will be seen in the next Pepsi commercial, with Ranbir Kapoor and Jaqueline Fernandez. Now that’s surprising, for I didn’t expect Sanju baba to appear in a cola ad, after endorsing some tobacco product.

Mots then says, that producer Sunil Manchanda was looking for an appropriate girl to feature with Kapoor and Dutt, and Nikhil Advani recommended Jacky. Seems Manchanda promptly called her for the cola commercial. But this doesn’t say explain why Dutt’s agreed to do the ad. How did the brand, which is swearing by ‘Youngistan’ these days, got almost-50-year-old Dutt to sign up for them?
