New Delhi: Sanjay Dutt is a car lover and his garage full of exotic cars bears testimony to it. The actor has recently booked a stylish luxury Mercedes for himself, but this time, he will be bringing home the car with a new number plate, which will have the digits 2999 instead of his usual 4545 that he uses for all his cars.


As reported by entertainment portal PinkVilla, Sanju Baba, as his fans fondly call him, has opted for the change on advice from his astrologer. A source close to the entertainment portal said that Sanjay's astrologer adviced the change for better luck and prosperity in both his personal and professional life. Previously, the actor preferred the number 4545 as it added up to his lucky number 9.


The source further added, "Baba booked yet another luxurious Mercedes car for him, a month ago, and this time he requested for a new number. You will get to see it soon."



But what made Sanjay Dutt let go of his preferred number and choose the number 2999? Well, here is the answer.


Born to veteran actors Nargis and Sunil Dutt, the 'Khalnayak' actor celebrates his birthday on July 29. As per astrology, the sum of the two numbers adds up to 2 (2+9= 11, 1+1 from 11=2). So according to his astrologer, the number 2 will enhance both his personal and professional prospects in life, bringing him good luck and prosperity. 


Sanjay Dutt has been taking astrology advice for quite some time now. The actor has favoured the number 29, even in the apst.


On the work front, he was last seen as the villainous character of Shuddh Singh in Ranbir Kapoor starrer 'Shamshera'. Earlier, he wowed the audience with his performance as Adheera in Yash starrer 'KGF: Chapter 2'. The film broke all box office records and emerged as one of the highest grossers of the year.


He will next be seen in 'The Good Maharaja' and Binoy Dutta's directorial 'Ghudchadi'.
