Sanjay Dutt is seeking to annul his brief marriage to Manyata, citing technical reasons, as the cause behind his decision.

The actor, on bail for illegal weapons possession, tied the knot with former starlet Manyata Dilnawaz Shaikh in a secret ceremony at a Goan beach resort and a few days later held a traditional Hindu wedding in Mumbai.

But their nuptials immediately ran into problems, with a man claiming to be Manyata’s husband saying the pair had never been divorced and that they had a two-year-old son staying with the starlet’s mother.

Neither Sanjay, who has been married twice before, nor Manyata, had filed proof of their divorces before holding the marriage ceremony in the former Portuguese colony, contravening local laws.

“Sanjay Dutt and Manyata on Wednesday filed a joint declaration… stating they do not desire to solemnise their marriage under the Portuguese civil code, 1867,” said an official, quoting from an affidavit filed by the couple.

While we feel for Sanjay whose string of bad luck seems to go on, we can’t help but wonder if his family has reasonable reasons for being dead against their relationship.

Sanjay’s sisters, however, may want to wait on bringing out the champagne as word on the street is that the couple intends to remarry – this time making sure to get it all right!

Sanjay Dutt married girlfriend Manyata according to Hindu rites, Mumbai, February 11. Unaware to us, the sneaky little couple had already tied the knot in a civil ceremony at Goa on February 7 with a few friends as their witnesses.

The wedding guest list was quiet small, and included only close friends such as producer Bunty Walia, Nitin Manmohan and Suniel Shetty with wife Mana.

Noticeably absent were Sanjay’s sisters Priya and Namrata. The two are rumoured to dislike and distrust Manyata, and did not want their brother to go through with the wedding.

However, when contacted, Priya, who is a Congress Member of Parliament insisted she is “very happy for them.”  

This is Sanjay’s third marriage; he was married to the late Richa Sharma from 1987- 1996 and Rhea Pillai from 1998-2005.

Congratulations to the happy couple!! Here’s hoping third time’s a charm!

It’s a Christmas miracle! Bollywood’s favorite convict, Sanjay Dutt walked out of prison today after being granted bail on a six-year sentence for possessing illegal weapons.

Expressing relief over the court’s order, the actor’s sister and Congress Member of Parliament Priya Dutt told reporters in Mumbai, "We hope for a better tomorrow and want to thank all who have supported us to overcome the situation."

After in and out trips to prison, an older-looking Sanjay smiled as he waved to the estatic crowd waiting to catch a glimpse of him outside prison gates.

With his passport in custody, he will have to report to the Special Task Force of CBI, Mumbai once in a month until further notice.

Something tells us though, with at least a half a dozen films to finish and 18.4 million dollars to rake in, Sanjay Dutt will be just fine!

The nightmare never seems to end for Sanjay Dutt. After serving 16 months locked behind bars for alleged involvement in a series of blasts in 1993, Sanjay came out a changed and sincerely apologetic man. Many felt he had served his sentence, but years later it proved to come back and bite him in the ass when he was found guilty of acquiring illegal weapons from those blamed for the bombings in Mumbai, in a trial that lasted more than 12 long years. (Big surprise, India’s legal system is slow!) He was sentenced to 6 years in prison, but was shortly released on bail. Now, the little hope that Sanjay seemed to have had has been dashed amid news that he has been taken back to the same Yerewada jail.

During his days in prison, Sanjay will have to get up at 7 am to have breakfast, lunch will be served at 12 noon and dinner will knock on the steel bars as early as 5 pm. Chicken will be served once a week and for additional food, he will have to shell out from his own pocket. How you may ask? Dutt, in his last stint, worked on cane artefacts in the jail workshop for which he earned daily wages of Rs 12.50 (a little over 30 cents!) Oh, the humanity!
