Post the conviction and subsequent release the second time around from Pune’s Yerawada Jail, the actor was excited about settling down with one time actress Manyata. But fate deemed otherwise.
The actor who registered his marriage on the 7th of Feb in Goa, returned to Mumbai for a hindu marriage ceremony on the 12th of the same month. Close friends attended the wedding and a very excited, elated and exhilarated Sanju Baba met the press fraternity waxing loud his love and marriage to the former dancer.
Soon trouble knocked on his doorstep. The Goa court found that the address given by Manyata was false and the subsequently following a lot of police questioning, the Goa marriage was declared null and void.
Sanju Baba’s close friend revealed, “Sanju was very upset when he realized that Manyata married him in Goa so that she could be a partner to his assets. As per Portuguese laws, the spouse automatically inherits 50% of the assets.”
But that matter soon got drowned in a fresh controversy. This time it was the arrival of a character named Miraj who claimed to be Manyata’s husband. Apparently Manyata is yet to divorce him and she also has conceived a child through him. The Bandra family court stayed the petition and ordered Dutt and Manyata to be present at the next court proceedings. Following that order, the court has also said that if Dutt has married her, he was also liable to be prosecuted.
After such a lot of hue and cry, the battle weary Sanjay Dutt has announced that he is not married to Manyata. I say, one does feel sorry for the man. But all we can say is that, better luck next time.
