One of the main and endearing characters of Sanju is Kamli, Sanjay Dutt’s best friend in the Ranbir Kapoor-starrer. The character of Kamli - Kamlesh Kanhaiyalal Kapasi - is based on Paresh Ghelani, Dutt’s real life best friend, who has stood by the troubled star through thick and thin. And now a hitherto social media-shy Ghelani has joined Instagram to share what exactly he felt after watching Rajkumar Hirani’s film.

Ghelani put out a long post on Instagram saying how moved he was to watch Sanju.

After watching the film ‘Sanju’ I was numb, numb with limitless emotions. I wanted to just hug him, hold on to him and cry. Cry endlessly to the years we had lost, to the years we stood by and witnessed this roller coaster called life and the irrevocable loss of loved ones.

Ghelani also thanked Sanjay Dutt for being his best friend.

Sanju - Thank You for being a part of my life. Thank you for making me part of the Pride where we watch each others back; Thank you for always having the protective blanket over me; Thank you for the journey you’ve dragged me on lovingly and have taught me how to fight the adversity, however it may come.

Ghelani is said to be an entrepreneur and business tycoon with companies such as Moon Express, Xprize and Radimmune under him.
