His film āBorderā was the first Indian film that symbolized Pakistan as an enemy.
When he was filming Border, he was facing a problem of granting approvals for the movie. At that timeĀ P. V. Narasimha Rao was the prime minister of the country. Dutta sent him a note, requesting for approval and help for the movie. It is said thatĀ Narasimha Rao replied that this movie must be filmed.
Ajay Devgan was offered a lead role in his blockbuster movie āBorder,ā but he declined the offer because he did not want to act in a multi starer movie. But Ajay Devgan accepted the offer of his other movie, āLOC Kargilā in which, he had portrayed the role of Param Vir Chakra Awardee Manoj Pandey .
After the release of Border movie, a Police Commissioner phoned him and said that Duttaās life was in danger. Meanwhile, Dutta received so many threats. So, from the police department, two armed men were sent for his security.
Having been influenced by his āBorderā, a Brigadier went to Mumbai to meet him and stayed there for one week and asked Dutta to make another movie like Border. But at that time, Dutta was receiving threats so, his family did not support this idea.

After becoming a director, J. P. used to live in a one bedroom flat in Mahim area of Mumbai.
As per his wife, Bindiya Goswami, āDutta is introvert, we are quite different from each other. He hardly speaks and I speak a lot. He is not romantic at all. I love travelling but he loves sitting at home.ā
J.P. Dutta and Saif Ali Khan ās first wifeĀ Amrita Singh were very good friends. He got sad when Amrita was divorced.
Interestingly, When he went to Ajmer and prayed atĀ Ajmer Sharif Dargah, he was blessed with a daughter Nidhi Dutta and when he prayed at Siddhivinayak temple, his second daughter Siddhi Dutta was born.
