Sanjay Dutt gifts diamond solitaire to Manyata

Ever since wife Manyata is carrying his child, Sanjay Dutt is ecstatic about becoming a proud father.

Elated at the prospects of fatherhood, Sanjay recently gifted a huge solitaire to his beloved wife Manyata. News has it that Manyata is three weeks pregnant.

Said a source, "When the doctor confirmed Maana’s pregnancy and she informed Sanju, he was so happy, he wanted to lay the whole world at her feet."

"Without telling her, he called up her favourite jeweller in Bandra and ordered the biggest pair of diamond earrings they had. When they were ready, he personally picked them up, came home and gifted the five-karat-each solitaire earring pair to his biwi," added the source.

Sanjay Dutt has a twenty year old daughter, Trishala, from his former wife Richa Sharma.

Sanjay Dutt to celebrate Wedding Anniversary in Kashmir

Sanjay Dutt who has lately been out of the country holidaying with his wife in New Zealand heads for Kashmir to shoot for Rahul Dholakia's Lamhaa under the heaviest 'bandobast' ever provided to any Indian actor for shooting in any part of the world.

Producer Bunty Walia was under serious discussions with every security channel in Kashmir to ensure full safety for the cast and crew, especially Dutt's, as his presence in J&K is seen as potentially more volatile since he has a massive fan base in the Valley.

That's not the only danger posed to Dutt's security. With his enormously controversial past record including several communal issues, it is felt by many of Dutt's well-wishers that it'd be foolhardy for the actor to be physically present in the extremist-hit Valley.

While the superstar makes light of the security issues, his CEO Dharam Oberoi is more candid in his concern. "It's somewhat dangerous for Baba. More so since he never goes with his personal security anywhere. Baba feels very embarrassed about bouncers following him everywhere. But Bunty Walia has left no stone unturned to secure the 80-unit member's security, especially Sanju Baba and Bipasha Basu's security. CRPF jawans, the army and the J&K police have all been deployed to protect the Lamhaa unit from any kind of violence."

But the best security measure to prevent any blast has been saved for the last. Jammers have been installed all around the hotel and the area where Sanjay Dutt and the crew will be shooting. These devices detonate bombs automatically when detected.

The impressive security 'bandobast' has convinced Dutt that it's not only safe enough to shoot for Lamhaa but also bring in his first marriage anniversary on 19 November in Kashmir.

In Srinagar, overlooking the Dal Lake is the Oberoi Towers where the unit of Lamhaa will be staying. Mrs Sanjay Dutt is expected to join her husband at this spot of jannat for their wedding anniversary on 19 November.

Sanjay Dutt and Manyata say they are not Married

Actor Sanjay Dutt and his 'friend' Manyata told a Mumbai court that they are not legally married, giving a dramatic twist to the case relating to the couple's marital status.

Challenging the allegations of bigamy levelled by Manyata's first husband Meraj Rehman, an undertrial, the couple has claimed there was no material to show the validity of their marriage in the eyes of the law. In an application filed before the Sessions Court on Monday, challenging the order of issuance of process against the two, Dutt and Manyata have stated that their reported marriage in Goa is a nullity.

Sanjay Dutt cancels his Marriage with Manyata

In a bizarre turn of events, film star Sanjay Dutt and wife Manyata have revoked their marriage in Goa.

The couple applied to the Goa Marriage Registrar seeking to revoke their marriage Thursday and the Goa marriage registrar has accepted the application permitting them to withdraw the marriage. The wedding now stands cancelled.

The couple in their application said they did not desire to honour their marriage under the Portuguese Civil Code.

Sources said the couple decided to cancel their marriage to avoid the legal tangle arising out of the alleged fake residential certificate that the registrar had accused Manyata of submitting at the time of the wedding.

The duo apparently wanted to register their marriage under the Special Marriages Act but was not informed at the time of marriage that the Act was not applicable in Goa.

Independent sources in Goa confirmed this when contacted by IANS over phone.

The development comes barely three weeks after the couple entered into wedlock in Goa and followed it up with a Hindu marriage ceremony in Mumbai.

Circles close to Dutt described the development an indication of how Dutt and Manyata are 'frustrated with the continuing legal complications hampering their wedlock'.

A close friend of Dutt says that Sanjay and Manyata just want to lead 'a normal, peaceful married life, but the legalities rocking their marriage has left a bad taste'.

The marriage led to several controversies. First, the Goa marriage registrar's office slapped a notice on the couple and then Manyata's ex-husband Meraj-Ur-Rehman claimed that he was still married to Dutt's wife.

A fortnight after the marriage was registered in Goa, the Marriage Registrar there served Manyata with a show cause notice questioning her on the fake residential certificate that she had submitted.

An official of the Goa government was suspended allegedly on ground of accepting invalid documents and registering the marriage in the tiny tourist paradise.
