As we move forward and step onto the next stone of life, sometimes we sail through smoothly but sometimes, the going gets tough and we stumble. It is tough to understand life but as we face our challenges and experience the failure or a test that God puts us through, the belief that everything will end and bad times won’t last forever make us sail through smoothly with a positive perception. Life has put Sanjay Dutt and his family to yet another test and we are sure that just like always, they’ll emerge through it as a winner.

In the latest development of Sanjay Dutt’s treatment in the US, a source had revealed to the Mid-Day that the actor has procured the visa and will soon head to New York for further treatment. The source had informed, "Sanju had applied for the visa as soon as he learnt of the diagnosis. However, initially, it wasn’t easy to get the clearance. He was acquitted in the 1993 Bombay Blasts but convicted in the arms act. US policies are if one is convicted in any case for 5 years and above, they just need a special waiver for getting the visa. Fortunately, one of his close friends helped the actor secure a five-year visa on medical grounds. He is expected to fly to New York with Maanayata and Priya, where he will pursue treatment at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Centre."
For the uninitiated, Sanjay Dutt has a family history of battling with cancer as his mom, Nargis Dutt had succumbed to pancreatic cancer in 1981 and his first wife, Richa Sharma too, had brain tumour. Even Sanjay's mother, Nargis Dutt and his first wife, Richa Sharma had gone to the US for treatment. During their respective treatments, Sanjay had juggled between India and the US, managing his professional commitments and personal life.
