The Bollywood today decided to launch a signature campaign on December 12 to express their support to actor Sanjay Dutt who has been held guilty under the Arms Act for possessing weapons used in 1993 serial bomb blasts case.

"We are grateful to Sanjay for his kind deeds and the help he extended to workers in the film industry and hence we are launching signature campaign to express our feelings that the entire Bollywood is with him in this moment of crisis", said Pahlaj Nihalani, film producer and President of Association of Motion Pictures and TV Programme Producers.

The signature campaign would be just for a day at the Film City in suburban Goregaon where members of film industry in various cadres -- spot boys to actors, producers and directors --"will come together to show their support to Sanjay whom they all love", Nihalani said.

"We do not have any intention to interfere with the court's order or influence the judiciary. The idea is to express our support to Sanjay who has in the past helped the film industry workers in whatever way he could", Nihalani said.

"All that I can say is that Sanjay is a nice person, always helpful to others and has already undergone punishment by spending some time in jail and going to TADA court regularly for the last 13 years", Nihalani said.

The film producer further said the entire Bollywood welcomed the verdict to the extent that Sanjay had been exonerated of terrorism charges.

After pronouncing him guilty on November 28, the court gave Sanjay time to surrender till December 19 and would hear arguments before awarding him the punishment.
