Mumbai: Bollywood star Sanjay Dutt on Tuesday received the first dose of the coronavirus vaccine.

The 61-year-old actor took to Twitter where he posted a picture of himself getting the jab at the city's BKC vaccine centre.

"Received my first shot of the COVID-19 vaccine today at the BKC vaccine center. I want to congratulate Dr Dhere and his entire team for doing such a wonderful job! I have so much love and respect for them and their hard work. Jai Hind!" Dutt tweeted.
