Though Dutt's bail plea is not listed for Friday, senior counsel Fali S Nariman might make a special mention and the case could be heard.
The TADA court sentenced Dutt to a six years' rigorous imprisonment on July 31 under the Arms Act in connection the 1993 Mumbai serial blasts. The actor, who spent 16 months in prison after his arrest in April 1993, was also fined Rs 25,000 by the court.
