Actor Sanjay Dutt [Images] and his sister Priya will hold a condolence meeting in New Delhi in honour of their father Sunil Dutt, who passed away on Wednesday at his residence in Mumbai.

The meeting, which will be attended by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh [Images] and Congress president Sonia Gandhi [Images] apart from the political Who's Who of Delhi, has been scheduled for Tuesday evening, said a senior Congress leader.

Sanju, as his father called him, himself proposed this meeting. Priya readily agreed to it.

Just three months before his death, Dutt had shifted to a government bungalow at 2, Tughlaq Road -- a highly secured neighbourhood home to many political bigwigs. He was earlier living at 9, Canning Lane.

Dutt's youngest daughter Priya is seen as his political successor. She actively campaigned for her father during 2004 Lok Sabha elections.
