Actor Sanjay Dutt, who is battling cancer, says he is gearing up for his character Adheera in the upcoming film, KGF: Chapter 2.

Sanjay Dutt will play the antagonist in the Yash-starrer, that also features Raveena Tandon. The film is a follow up to the 2018 Kannada blockbuster, KGF: Chapter 1.

The 61-year-old Sanjay took to Instagram and shared a string of pictures where he looks dapper in a black T-shirt and olive-colored cargo pants. He completes his look with aviator sunglasses.

"Gearing up for #Adheera! #KGFChapter2," he captioned the image.

Recently, the actor addressed his battle with cancer in a video posted by his friend and celebrity hairstylist Aalim Hakim. In the video, Sanjay also sported a beard, which he said he was growing for KGF: Chapter 2.

On August 11, Dutt, who was hospitalised due to breathing problems and chest discomfort, shared that he was taking a break for medical treatment. Although the actor or his family members did not reveal anything officially at that point, trade analyst and film industry insider Komal Nahta subsequently confirmed that the actor had been diagnosed with lung cancer.
