"According to the Hindu Marriage Act, if the couple are Hindus at the time of marriage, only then is the marriage valid under the Act," noted lawyer Mrunalini Deshmukh said.
"Even though Sanjay and Manyata have filed a joint declaration with South Goa's registration authorities seeking withdrawal of their marriage declaration, they will be husband and wife if their marriage as per the Hindu Marriage Act is valid," Deskhmukh said.
But if Manyata has not converted before the marriage rites, then either party can challenge the marriage at the time of annulment, as it is an invalid marriage.
The joint declaration filed by the couple before South Goa's Salcette Sub registrar's office states that they do not desire to solemnise their marriage under the Portuguese Civil Code, 1867.
Sanjay and Manyata had filed a declaration before Salcette Sub Registrar Chandrakant Pissurlekar on February 7. The declaration, which was marred with controversies and allegation of forgeries, was supposed to be confirmed within 90 days.

RatingI did not know that Hinduism had a principle of conversion ! For that matter, can some one define who is a Hindu?! The whole thing sounds rather peculiar!!SaratchandranAustralia
Whether they are so-called celebrities or not, they reflect the actions of some of us who go ahead and do something and then look after the details later if they come up at all. "arrey, kuch bhi chalega, don't bother about rules" kind of mind set.......maybe used to paying one's way out of any corner.
It is sad to see Sanjay Dutt embroiled in another controversy over his marriage. Wish he had involved his sisters in the matter and grey areas could have been sorted out beforehand.
One cannot be converted to Hinduism unless she or he is a Hindu by birth! This is a fact! So any laws created by any one doesn't hold water. However, in India we have seen that any couple can remain together as long as they want to and no one gives a damn about it!
well, i dint know that people of other religion had to convert to hinduism to marry a hindu. interesting but i wonder of the secular credentials of the law. i was also under the impression that only people born as hindus remain hindus and conversions are not allowed.
What has this got to do with Secularism? The issue concerns Hindu Marriage Act and not some non-religious civil matter.
What has this got to do with the Secular credentials of the law? In case you missed it the issue concerns HINDU MARRIAGE ACT and not some other non-relegious civil matter.also Arya Samaj has been organising SHUDDHI ceremonies for over a century. Furthermore VHP has also been organising conversion ceremnoies for a long while (of course not to non-Hindu religions) and every time it happens the Secular brigade complains about it. A lot of the Southern temples actually ask to see the certificate of their conversion to Hinduism before performing the marriage of a non-Hindu born person to a Hindu.

The issue here is big. It is the wider issue of seclularism. Sanjay Dutt who is belongint to the seclular faith of Musslim has to wear the burqa of comnunal Hindooism all his life under pressure from the intolerant society of Hindoosthan. Now Manyaa also is having to pretend Hindoo rites and being forced into conversion. Even the seclular state of Christain Goa and Portugues civil code is not being able to protect them from the clutches of comnuncal Hindooism. If they were in their native Paksitan or Bonglades, they will never face such comnunal forces and always live in seclular harmony.
Why exactly did the go through the charade of a Hindu marriage. Don't bleat on about secularism. They always had the option of a civil marriage registration where no such restrictions are imposed.

Guys Media is wasting our precious time. Dont respond to such questions.I hope Media gets a better sense of topics.I am bugged with these guys...At one side India is progressing which is so good.On other hand Media ..cant say where it is going..God render some send to Media..
whether she did or didnt, how does it concern you Media. stop fooling around with people and cover more important coverage.
Why waste time on a non-issue?
right on; world is going to pots and we want to talk about bunch of irrelevant HIBHEEJIBHEES! This fiddle is out of tune, while the Rome is burning!
Although I am no fan of Sanjay Dutt and hate him for being a moron siding with the underworld (when his father was an MP and an honest graceful person). Sanjay Dutt could have been an Indian icon facing the underworld bravely and would have got support from one and all. Instead he chose to side with them. There were tapes of him 7 years ago, where in he was sqeaking like a pig "Haan bhai, ji bhai" kind of. However, give these guys a break. Its their marriage, their wish, even if they are not married in legal terms. Jab miyan biwi raji, to kazi ki lagao bazi.
Their Hindu marriage is only PR job.neither Sanjay nor socalled Manyata are Hindus.Manyata never convert to Hinduism.without her conversion, Hindu marriage cannot and should not legal.ragister marriage is their chiice.Their Hindu marriage is PR job to get Hindu sympathy anf get Presidential pardon from Sanjay's involvement in cooperation with 93 terrorists.otherwise Sanjay would have love have nikkah with manyata.their marriage i only for checkmate to family feud or oppositon to marry Manyata, no problem for living togather.
Why the media so mad for the jokers sanja dutt and his marriage. there are other topics to taken care of
What is Hunduism? There is no conversion in Hinduism. Those who follow Hindu culture are Hindus. Conversion is practised only by Christains and Muslims.
I suppose "conversion" here means whether you are ready to follow Hindu culture. It is not so easy for a non-Hindu, who has not been born into the faith or who has not traveled a long way seeking the principles of that faith. In this case, it is more a convenience.
It is no one's business except Manyata and Sanjay's. Wish people of India mind their own business and stop interfering and passing foolish comments.
Quite true. But when an attempt to violate the law of the land is highlighted it does become concern of the others also.
Thats it. Why are we so after filmstars? Let them have their own private lives.
no fatwa on manyata, where all our funamentalist gone,or they allready got the money i think
Are Munnabai..why do you go all the way to Panji..Go to Pune,Contact Muniben MBBS( a quack medical practioner and conwoman) will get a fake forged marraige ceryificate delivered to you at home.Dircetor Vasanth Rokade (satara) has made a oscar winning movie MUNNIBEN MBBS based on true life story of this conwoman Kalpana Bhnage and comdedian Ramesh Lallu!!
Medias, Please leave Sanjay and Manyata alone. Let them do whatever they like....
CREATION IS AN ART...WHEN THERE IS NOTHING WE HAVE TO CREATE SAME WAYWEN THERE IS NO NEWS.. WE HAVE to CREATE NEWS...u can say as " newtons second law"
