In a 2018 interview with the IANS, Sanjay credited his father for everything that he is today and was quoted as saying:
"Whatever I am today is because of my father. He is my inspiration and I miss him every day. I did not always share an easy relationship with him. But he always stood by me. I wish he was here to see me as a free man and the beautiful family that I have today. He would have been proud."
