HIT team of immensely successful 'Dus' unite again for their dramatic social "Tathastu'. The movie is about to be released by the end of this month and we present below some of the important facts and tid-bits about the film's storyline and execution:

1) 'Tathastu' is a Sanskrit word. It symbolizes the affirmative response by deities to their disciples' wishes. That's the reason why the tagline of the film reads - 'So Be It'.

2) 'Tathastu' brings together actor Sanjay Dutt, producer Nitin Manmohan and director Anubhav Sinha yet again after the success of 'Dus'.

3) While 'Dus' was a hardcore actioner, 'Tathastu' has a great dramatic appeal.

4) The film is about a father's [Sanjay Dutt] struggle against the injustice done to his daughter. Sanjay Dutt played a role on similar lines a few years for Mahesh Manjrekar's 'Pitaah'.

5) While 'Pitaah' had a village setting, 'Tathastu' has an urban setting with Sanjay Dutt enacting the role of Ravi Rajput, a 40 year-old factory supervisor.

6) Yet again, Sanjay Dutt is forced to take up law in his own hands as he fights against the "society" and "system'.

7) Amisha Patel, approximately half the age of Sanjay Dutt, plays his wife. Incidentally Amisha Patel had her biggest success [Gadar-Ek Prem Katha] when she played the wife of much older Sunny Deol. Also, she had one of her biggest flop with Sunny paaji recently in the form of 'Teesri Aankh - The Hidden Camera].

8) Jayaprada makes a comeback after an inconsequential role in 'Khakee'. In 'Tathastu', she plays a doctor and is said to have given a great performance.

9) Gulshan Grover is what he is BEST at - playing BAD MAN, though in a much sophisticated manner.

10) 'Tathastu' would also mark the return of Manoj Pahwa, who played a funny cop in 'Being Cyrus'.

11) As per industry buzz, 'Tathastu' has a unique and terrific script, something that hasn't been ever seen before on an Indian screen.

12) The film is written by Yash-Vinay who have earlier written screenplay of 'Dus', 'Viruddh', 'Plan', 'Padmashree Laloo Prasad Yadav' and 'Kaante'. Their next release would be Vikram Bhatt’s 'Ankahee'.

13) The film's highlight is a 8-minute long non-stop dialogue delivery by Sanjay Dutt in the confines of the Yerwada jail in Pune. The scene was shot using 6 cameras and had more than 2000 junior artists.

14) The film has only one song in form of a 'qawalli'. As per composer Vishal-Shekhar, its one of those intense 'qawallis' that are a must watch. It is sung by a man called Humsar Hayat who is a chief qawall at Nizamuddin mosque, New Delhi. Also it has some really gorgeous lyrics by Panchi.

15) The film was completed in a record span of less than a month.
