While the ongoing gossip on the sets of Dutt's next miffed him, the lady in question ultimately turns out to be a friend's wife!

What seemed to be an innocuous remark by a bystander resulted in causing a flutter on the sets of Sanjay Dutt's film in Chandigarh. Someone posted a message on a micro-blogging site: 'Dutt been seen with a woman' during the filming of Son of Sardar.

The buzz did the rounds on the sets and people started reading between the lines. This infuriated the star to no end. As he appeared irritated, his buddy and co-star in the film, Ajay Devgn, tried to pacify him. Being the producer as well, Ajay tried to keep things under control.

But to make matters worse, the news not only did the rounds of the sets but reached Sanjay's wife Maanayata in Mumbai as well. Knowing how dear his family is to him, this further resulted in anguish for the star. To add to his woes, Dutt had not been keeping very well.

The star then tried to trace the person whose handiwork it was. It turned out to be some inconsequential guy who was a witness to the shoot proceedings. And the woman in question happened to be Sanjay's friend's wife who was visiting him on the sets with her hubby.

Confirms a unit source, "On the sets, everyone was talking about it. As Sanjay was not feeling too well, it annoyed him even more." Dutt's spokesperson maintains that such an incident did not occur. However the source says, "Everyone on the sets has been talking about it."
