Sanjay's personal life was exacerbated by drug problems,
and worsened with the demise of his first wife, Richa Sharma, from cancer, and
his arrest under TADA. He was also arrested for having illegal possession of
several AK-47 rifles, and was imprisoned while the case continued. After his
release, he appeared in three consecutive hits; Daag: The Fire (1999), Haseena
Maan Jaayegi (1999) and Vaastav: The Reality (1999), all of which brought him
moderate success. His performance in Vaastav: The Reality (1999) earned him the
Best Actor in a Leading Role award at Film fare Awards.
Sanjay then appeared in the movie Mission Kashmir (2000)
which also earned him an award. His most recent role is that of
"Ajju" in Kaante (2002), which was another award winning performance.
