As a child, Sanjata became interested in sports. It was in connection with various competitions in which he won, the future actor often missed classes at school, and then at the university. But it was during his studies at the university that he set priorities for himself, realizing that his love for cinema and theater is stronger than for sports.
In the nineties, Sanjata performed a lot in the theater, participating mainly in Shakespearean plays. Filmmakers began to look at him. Of course, the main roles were not given, but for Daniel was important first recognition. He had to star in episodic roles of famous television series.
In 2003, Sanjata began performing on Broadway. He is best known for his role in Take Me Out, in which he played a baseball player. It was thanks to this role that the same year he was awarded a nomination for the Tony Award. In the same year, Daniel, according to People, was included in the number of the most beautiful people on the planet.
The success of Sanjata on Broadway provoked a sharp interest of directors. The following year, he appeared in several films. Many critics have noted Daniel’s work in the television series Save Me. In addition, the audience was inspired by his play in the film Brother to Brother.

The devil wears Prada .
It is worth noting that the infamous terrorist attack that occurred in 2001 horrified the actor. As a sign of grief, he wore a black T-shirt for a long period that read "9/11." In 2008, he repeated the action. During the filming of the next season
"Save me" Sanjata only appeared in this shirt.
