In a bizarre turn of events, Bollywood 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 Thursday afternoon.

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, filmmaker Nitin Manmohan, told IANS Thursday that Sanjay and Manyata just want to lead 'a normal, peaceful married life, but the legalities rocking their marriage has left a bad taste'.

Manmohan said though he had not yet spoken to Dutt about the matter, he sympathised with the couple.

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.

Bollywood Gossips - Goa authorities have kept the marriage proceedings of Bollywood Actor Sanjay Dutt and Manyata on hold after Margao division administrative officer suspended the residence certificate issued to Manyata.

"All the marriage registration proceedings are kept in abeyance pending further orders," said Sub Registrar, Chandrakant Pissurlekar, who had accepted the declaration of marriage.

Pissurlekar said that they will not allow the final signature on the marriage, which has to be done within 90 days, till the Mamlatdar (senior administrative officer in district collectorate), clears off the suspension of the residence certificate.

Manyata had attached a residence certificate of a local panchayat, recommended by a talathi (revenue officer) in South Goa Collectorate.

The district administration has already suspended the talathi for recommending the issuance of the residence certificate without verifying whether Manyata really stayed in the area for last six months.

Sanjay and Manyata's declaration of marriage was submitted in the sub registrar's office on February 7.

Authorities state that if second signature is not executed within 90 days, the marriage would be "null and void".

There is no legal validity for the marriage until second signature is done on the declaration, they said.

The sub registrar also stated that Manyata will have to
submit her decree of divorce before doing the second signature on the declaration.

"The decree has to be submitted before final declaration of marriage and till now she is yet to submit it," Pissurlekar said.

Meanwhile, Congress leader Shantaram Naik has asked the Goa government to enact a legislation to regulate the procedure of issuing resident certificates in the coastal state.

The issue of resident certificate came into focus after the state government raised questions on the certificate issued to Manyata.

The certificate is mandatory to register a marriage in the coastal state, according to the provisions of the
Portugese Uniform Civil Code prevalent here.

The Portuguese law requires attested xerox copies of
Birth Certificate, Ration Card and School Leaving Certificate or any other document as proof of residence, the MP said, adding that the genuineness of the document produced by the actress needs to be examined properly.

The Rajya Sabha member from Goa, said the recent incident in where Manyata allegedly obtained a resident certificate on grounds that she was residing for more than six months in a house in Margao and subsequently, made a declaration before the Sub-registrar for getting the marriage registered, should be an eye opener to the state government, when, in fact, the actress has never lived in the town for the said period.

Mumbai: At the recently held Johnny Walker One Tree Music Festival in Mumbai, the crowd was left ecstatic. But there was one man in the crowd who definitely stood out with his sheer musical talent.

This man is just one of the reasons why Bollywood Actor Sanjay Dutt abandoned his film shooting in Goa to come back to Mumbai for a few days.

"I told them Joe Bonamassa is there. I cannot shoot," Sanjay Dutt said.

Joe Bonamasa, the 30-year-old blues guitarist, vocalist and songwriter, has been flown down to India by the Johnny Walker One Tree Music Festival at Sanjay Dutt's behest.

On Saturday evening both the actor and musician were all smiles.

"Just to see how simply he stands and he plays the guitar, especially the acoustic guitar...that's talent," Dutt said.

Also part of the fest was the five-time Grammy Award winning blues musician Robert Cray, who later took the stage to strum away into the night.

We all know that Bollywood ActorSanjay Dutt loves his music. However the actor has now taken this passion a step forward. Especially when it comes to blues music.

"We had a lot of people who were into rock, blues and jazz but it just died down. I think it was our time in the 70s. I just wanted that time back and I suggested about starting the One Tree Music Festival and getting these people," Actor Sanjay Dutt added.

This effort has been music to the ears for all music lovers in Mumbai. Despite falling temperatures, the response to the festival was anything but cold.

The Supreme Court today sought response from director Sanjay Leela Bhansali on a plea seeking vacation of stay on criminal proceedings against him in connection with a fire on the set of his film Black.

The fire was allegedly caused due to use of LPG cylinders.

A Bench comprising Justices C K Thakker and D K Jain issued notice to Bhansali on a petition filed by Farida Husseinally, an antique dealer, who had sourced some unique furniture for the set of the movie.

The antique dealer allegedly lost furniture worth Rs two crore which included heavy bronze, copper and items.

The dealer in his complaint in the Magistrate's court in Borivali had contended that use of LPG cylinders on the set was a criminal offence under the provisions of law regulating the petroleum gas.

Husseinally through her counsel Vishwnath Chaturvedi has challenged the Bombay High Court order staying the criminal proceedings claiming that the director was in the habit of putting his films sets on fire for duping the insurance companies.

She alleged that during the shooting of the film on February 18, 2004 the set was put on fire to seek hefty compensation.

The antique dealer further claimed that on her enquiry she came to know that before the alleged fire, Bhansali had removed all the items supplied by her from the set of the film.

After complaint was lodged in 2006, Bhansali had moved the High Court, seeking the quashing of the criminal case registered against him in the court in Borivali.

November 9 is a big day in Bollywood for two reasons: Om Shanti Om and Saawariya.

Hey Wait!! There needs some change. In an unprecedented move, Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Sony Pictures have decided to premiere their movie Saawariya on November 7 evening, which is two days ahead of its mega release on November 9.

Bollywood Movies are generally premiered 14 hours before its final release date because the producer and director try to avert any chance of negative publicity. However, in this case.. Sanjay seems to be very much confident about his movie and says that they dont care about any negative publicity.

Sony Pictures says with Diwali on November 9, people would be spending time offering pooja and meeting their near/ dear ones and he doesnt want to create inconvenience of the guests for the premier show.

Sony Pictures is believed to release 600 prints of the movie in India and about 900 more globally.

Here's some more on the film and its debutant hero Ranbir Kapoor. The towel dropping shot in the number Jab Se Tere Naina from the film has been dropped by the Censor Board. Bhansali is not complaining as the shot obstructs or disturbs the flow of his creativity. The director was offered the choice of keeping the nude shot with an Adults Only certificate. But the filmmaker did not want to lose an extremely large and crucial portion of the potential audience for that one shot.

The first Indian film produced by a Hollywood studio - Columbia pictures - 'Saawariya' is all set for some stiff competition from another mega-star mega-budget Indian film - 'Om Shanti Om', when both films hit the theaters November 9.

While the 'OSO' produced by the Baadshah of Bollywood Shah Rukh Khan has, besides him, a galaxy of stars promoting the film, its fallen upon the two new kids on the block - Ranbir and Sonam Kapoor - to promote their film 'Saawariya'.

So even when they visited the city to promote their film, the two debutantes were facing the media queries on their own.

Ranbir Kapoor - son of Rishi and Neetu Kapoor and fourth generation kid of the famous Kapoor gharana -understands and acknowledges the possible threats to his maiden film at the BO.

"It's unfortunate that both the movies are releasing on the same day. It does affect business. But it's festive season and I am sure it can hold two films. The entire team of 'Saawariya' wishes 'OSO' all the best and I am sure they wish well for us too," says Ranbir.

But he accepts being nervous, though seems all committed to shoulder the responsibility to publicise his film.

"Honestly, this being Sonam's and my first film that itself giving us sleepless nights. I don't think of it coming with Shah Rukh Khan.

He is too big a star. He's been in the industry for such a long time. We can't even think of going head to head with him," he says.

But he further adds, "He's the biggest actor in the country, but we have the biggest director in the country - Sanjay Leela Bhansali, who is the USP of the film."

Ranbir and Sonam both admit that, being a starkids it was easier for them to get a start in the industry, but says that their lineage will lead to unnecessary scrutiny and criticism as well.

"I wouldn't have met Sanjay Leela Bhansali if I wasn't Anil Kapoor's daughter. But at the same time, I'll have expectations, a baggage put on me. I'll be compared to my father all the time," confesses Sonam.

Ranbir seconds her by saying, "I completely agree with Sonam. The comparisons are made, the expectations are too much

You are under like a microscope because they are going to compare everything right from your hair strand to your nail. You can't escape that."

She, however, adds, "But interestingly, right now top stars not star kids. SRK, Aishwarya Rai, Priyanka Chopra none of them has a lineage except Abhishek Bachchan."

Ranbir quickly adds, "But don't take away our hard work. We also work really hard to live up to expectations. Because you come from so and so family and comparison are gonna be made, so its really hard to make a niche for your self."

Sonam pitches in, "At the end, it what the audience want and what they like. Who they accept and who they don't. So it all up to the audience, your destiny and your hard work."

The film also stars, established names like Salman Khan and Rani Mukerji. Ranbir maintains he's thankful to them for their contribution to the film.

"Though I have no scene with Salman, but I learned so much while sharing screen space with Rani. Rani is such a fabulous actor," he says.

By Subhash K. Jha

If reports from an imaginative section of the media are to be believed, Sanjay Bhansali has already firmed in on his next project. And it's called; hold your breath, Hamari Jaan Ho Tum.

Before we moved ahead with this mushy mythical yarn, let's rewind quickly to the exquisite soundtrack of Saawariya where one of the most melodious tracks has the cutest love lyrics that go, ‘Thode badmaash ho tum thode nadaan ho tum / haan magar yeh sach hai hamari jaan ho tum’.

Indeed Hamari Jaan Ho Tum was an idea that the moviemaking magician was toying with after the success of Black. It was a story about young love in which Sanjay wanted to cast Udit Narayan's son and Mahesh Bhatt-Soni Razdan's daughter.

So is that going to be his next project? Laughs the beleaguered director, "Right now I’m too consumed by the release of Saawariya to even think about what I'll do next. My music composer Monty Sharma and I are busy putting together the background score. Do you know, Monty is the first composer I've worked with who writes music? He knows the musical notations and he puts every note of a tune down on paper before recording them. Such precision in musicianship I’ve never encountered before. I can't think beyond Monty and his music right now."

As for Hamari Jaan Ho Tum, Sanjay has no plans of making that in the immediate future.

Ranbir Kapoor , the son of Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh, is the latest Bollywood entrant from the famous Kapoor clan.

What better way to start one’s acting career than with a Sanjay Leela Bhansali movie? Yes, Ranbir has got a dream start to his Bollywood career. He will make his debut in Bhansali’s project Saanvariya , which also introduces Anil Kapoor’s daughter Sonam Kapoor .

Even as Ranbir is still busy shooting for his first movie, talks have begun to cast him in more projects. His dad, Rishi Kapoor, is looking forward to revive RK Films banner with a movie starring Ranbir in the lead role.

Rishi has already made a request to Rajkumar Hirani ( Lage Raho Munnabhai director) to direct a film for RK Banner. While Hirani has declined to make the film, he has agreed to cast the 24-year-old Ranbir in his next movie which will not be a Munnabhai series.

The film, yet untitled, will be Hirani’s take on the present day education system. It will be about striving to be successful, and how the joy of learning is gone in modern education.

Hirani is presently working on the first draft of the film’s script with Abhijat Joshi. The project will go on the floors in the first quarter of 2007.

On a different front, talks are on to rope in Ranbir and Sonam for the lead roles in the sequel to the yesteryear’s hit ‘Mr. India’.

The sequel will be directed by Nikhil Advani, the director of Kal Ho Na Ho . The film might also mark the comeback of Sridevi and Anil Kapoor .

However, the cast is still to be finalized.

In the meantime, Ranbir continues to grab headlines, partly because of his good looks and partly because of the compliments that keep coming intermittently from Sanjay Leela Bhansali.
