Mehraj Shaikh, former husband of Manyata, on Friday filed an application in the court against actor Sanjay Dutt and Manyata for allegedly getting married in violation of Muslim marriage norms. Shaikh, incidentally, faces charges of sending vulgar SMS and threatening Bollywood personalities for extortion.

He moved an application before the Bandra metropolitan court praying for legal proceedings against Sanjay Dutt and Manyata. Metropolitan Magistrate Pankaj Shah has admitted the matter and posted the hearing for Saturday.

Shaikh claimed in his application that he and Manyata had started living separately but neither of them had sought 'talak'.
