As Bollywood's 'Khalnayak' Sanjay Dutt turned 60, an array of celebrities flooded the social media with their best wishes for the birthday boy on Monday.

On the occasion of Sanjay Dutt's 60th birthday, the actor's fans were treated with his first look from the upcoming film 'KGF: Chapter 2'.

Farhan Akhtar shared the first look of the actor and renumerated the time he admired the actor and saw him shooting at the bandstand for his debut 'Rocky'.

"I remember, as a kid, watching him shoot for his debut film 'Rocky' on bandstand... and all these years later we're finally collaborating on something special. Here's presenting Sanjay Dutt as Adheera from KGF Chapter2. And here's also wishing him a happy birthday. Big hug Sanjay Dutt," he wrote while extending out his wishes.

Ajay Devgn also tweeted a message for his 'rockstar' friend and wrote, "Happy 60th Birthday Bro Sanjay Dutt. Always a rockstar!"

Welcoming the birthday boy in the 60's club, Anil Kapoor wished the actor with immense success. "Oh, to be young and full of vigor!! Happy Birthday, Sanjay Dutt! Welcome to the 60's club! Wish you all the happiness, love & success!" he tweeted alongside a dashing picture of the actor.

Abhishek Bachchan shared a series of pictures with the 'Munna Bhai M.B.B.S' actor on his Instagram story. In one of the pictures both the actors were seen posing for the shutterbugs and Abhishek captioned it as "The OG," while in the second click the actor wrote, "Happy Birthday to the original rockstar."

Celebrations turned double for the actor who also released the teaser of his forthcoming Hindi remake of Telegu film 'Prasthanam' where he is seen playing the role of a politician.

Jackie Shroff who will be seen sharing screen space with the actor in the upcoming film shared the teaser of the film on his Twitter handle and also wished the actor with luck and success on a special day. "Sanju baba's birthday and Prasthanam Teaser, amazing! Happy birthday Sanjay Dutt. This year, power will not be inherited, it will have to be earned!" he wrote.

Vivek Oberoi picked a different way to wish the birthday boy. He uploaded one of his favourite scenes from the film 'Shootout at Lokhandwala' on Twitter, which featured him, Sanjay along with Neha Dhupia.

"Praising his look from the film 'KGF: Chapter 2,' he wrote, "Many happy returns of the day baba bhai! May God bless you with tons and tons of happiness and good health. 'Adheera' looks intense and deadly. Love the look. Wish you the very best for 'KGF2' Keep inspiring us all! Much love. Sanjay Dutt. Sharing one of my favourite scenes!"
