Sanjay Dutt was born on July 29, 1959. Sanjay Dutt's family was a Punjabi family. Sanjay Dutt's place of birth is Bombay City, which is popularly known as Mumbai. Sanjay Dutt’s Father Sunil Dutt and Sanjay Dutt’s Mother Nargis Dutt were well-known Hindi film actors of Hindi Cinema. Dutt's origins may be traced to the Rawalpindi Division of West Punjab; he was born to a Punjabi Hindu Mohyal Brahmin father and a Muslim mother (who later converted from Islam to Hinduism). 

Sunil and Nargis gave Sanjay the name Sunjay at first, but as he began acting in movies, he changed it. Sanjay Dutt was once known as Sanjay Balram Dutt because his father's name was part of his entire name. However, he eventually dropped his father's name from his name and began going by the name Sanjay Dutt, and today everyone knows him by that name.

Priya Dutt and Namrata Dutt are Sanjay's sisters. Sanjay's name was selected through a crowdsourcing process using the Urdu film magazine Shama. His mother's passing in 1981, just before the release of his first movie, is credited with sparking his drug habit. Dutt made a brief cameo as a Qawali singer in the 1972 movie Reshma Aur Shera. Sanjay Dutt Went to the Lawrence School in Sanawar, a town close to Kasauli.

Education

Sanjay Dutt attended Sanawar's Lawrence School for his education. This school is located in Himachal Pradesh close to Kasauli. Education was put on hold when Sanjay Dutt made the decision to pursue medical rehabilitation in Jackson, Mississippi, in the United States.

Richa Sharma

Richa accepted Sanjay's proposal while she was filming Aag Hi Aag (1987) in Ooty. The actress expressed her confusion to him and said she would give it some thought. But Sanjay kept calling her in Ooty until she agreed. After finally being married, the couple welcomed a stunning baby girl named Trishala into the world.

However, Richa soon received a diagnosis of a terminal brain tumor, and she relocated to the US for treatment. After that, rumors of Sanjay's relationship with Madhuri Dixit began to circulate. Richa passed away at her parents' house in New York on December 10, 1996. Dutt wed the actress Richa Sharma in 1987. In 1996, a brain tumor claimed her life. Trishala Dutt, the couple's 1988-born daughter, resides in the US with her paternal grandparents. 
There were a lot of rumors that their divorce was brought on by Richa's fatal sickness. In a throwback interview with Movie magazine from 1993, Sanjay cited Richa's family as the reason for their separation. In discussing the same, he had said:

My relationship with Richa is over. We won't be able to reconcile. Richa is fine in my eyes, but her parents have ruined our life. They were too invasive. They have accused me of so many things. In essence, it's her (Richa's) sister who is speaking constantly and who has incited a lot of hostility between us. Therefore, the issue is between a husband and a wife. If concessions are necessary, they must be made between Richa and me.

Riya Pillai

At Mahesh Jethmalani's legal office is when Sanjay first met Riya Pillai. Sanjay saw his attorney Mahesh Jethmalani frequently while he was out on bail during the 1993 Mumbai bombings. Suddenly, he ran into Riya Pillai; both Sanjay and Riya Pillai died in the course of their first encounter, and fell deeply in love. After breaking up with Madhuri Dixit, Sanjay Dutt began dating socialite and model Rhea Pillai.

Sanjay was deeply in love with Rhea Pillai, his second wife, but there were rumors that Rhea had an affair with tennis player Leander Paes. Sanjay is thought to have been blame-free in this relationship, but Sanju baba suffered the most. Sanjay Dutt had granted Rhea Pillai a fancy condominium with a view of the sea and a pricey car as alimony following their divorce. Even her bills had been paid by him for a very long time.

Riya claims that Sanjay frequently hunts for opportunities to meet Riya by inventing various justifications. After dating for a while, they eventually got married in 1998. However, after their marriage, they moved away, and their romance came to an end when they got divorced in 2008. 2008 saw the divorce's completion. 

Manyata Dutt

After two years of courting, Dutt wed Manyata (born Dilnawaz Sheikh), first in a Hindu ceremony in Goa in 2008 and subsequently in Mumbai. According to rumors, Sanjay first met Manyata when he was dating Nadia Durrani. Maanayata, who was then known as Dilnawaz Shaikh, drew him in with her laid-back and modest demeanor. After two years of dating, Sanjay fell in love with Maanayata, and on February 7, 2008, the actor wed again. And on October 21, 2010, the couple welcomed their twins, Shahraan and Iqra Dutt, into the world after two years of marriage.

Sanjay Dutt's biggest attribute is Maanayata Dutt. Sanjay Dutt once mentioned in an interview with a reputable portal: Maanayata is my best, not my better, half. She gives me courage. She helps me up when I stumble. She must have endured more suffering than I did. I wish that no one ever experiences what she went through while raising children alone and realizing every day what she had.

The faith in love has been lost in our time, but every now and then we come across a love tale that helps us regain it. Sanjay Dutt and Manyata Dutt's romance is unquestionably one of those. Sanju Baby has long embodied the idea of a casanova in the entertainment world. Sanjay Dutt has long been regarded as a man who struggled with love before meeting Manyata. Manyata stood tall next to him through all of his thick and thin in addition to transforming a playboy into a one-woman guy.

Dutt dated Tina Munim, his co-star in his debut movie, in the early 1980s.

In 1991, Madhuri and Sanjay's love affair was the talk of the town and the cover story of every magazine both before and after the release of the superhit movie Saajan. There were several rumors regarding their claimed relationship, which allegedly began on the set of their movies. 

Not only did Madhuri and Sanjay Dutt have great comfort, but they also enjoyed one other's company. Sanjay was referred to as Madhuri's favorite partner in one of her interviews. She had stated that he had amused her with his jokes and that he is a great gentleman who is adored by everyone. Sanjay Dutt-related interviews by Madhuri stoked the flame of love. Soon, rumors of their love and admiration for one another began to circulate in B-town. When Sanjay was still married to Richa Sharma, his first wife, the two had fallen in love with one another. 

There were persistent rumors that Sanjay will separate from Richa and wed Madhuri. They began grabbing attention for their sensual relationship. Although none of them publicly acknowledged their relationship, it was said that they were engaged to be married. Madhuri didn't get close to Sanjay Dutt till after his arrest for TADA. However, Madhuri and Sanjay had collaborated on a project for Karan Johar's film Kalank after 25 years.

Nadia Durrani

Before sanajay met Rhea, Sanjay allegedly had a relationship with Nadia. Even before and after his marriage to Rhea, Sanjay Dutt and Nadia had a strong relationship. Sanjay and Rhea's divorce is due solely to Nadia. Rhea was reportedly prepared to pardon the actor, but during the filming of Kaante, an obsessed Nadia showed up on the US sets, and things got out of hand, causing Rhea to break off her relationship with the actor. Sanjay and Nadia's romance, however, also terminated quickly.

It was claimed that Dutt allowed Abu Salem and co-accused Riyaz Siddiqui, who had previously been charged in connection with the Mumbai explosions, to transfer firearms to his home.

In his book, Let Me Say It Now, Maria describes his interrogation of Sanjay after he was arrested. Sanjay initially asserted his innocence. The stress and worry of the previous few days finally caught up with me. I had to give him a hard slap on the cheek because I could not stand the lying. I quickly grabbed hold of his long, gold-tipped mane as he tilted backward and his legs shot up into the air. I said I am asking you like a gentleman, you answer like one, physically looking down upon him into his startled and terrified eyes, according to a report in IANS.

The accused was summoned as Sunil argued for his son's innocence. Sanjay told his father about his error, which astonished him, and added that he had destroyed the weapons. Sunil was reportedly stunned by this admission of guilt, according to Maria. He saw that the expression on his face is difficult to describe as he carefully scrutinized him.
