Manyata Dutt is an Indian film producer and former actress who has served as the CEO of Sanjay Dutt Productions, a film production company established by her husband and actor Sanjay Dutt. Her chequered acting career, which came to a grinding halt after the death of her father, an incident that left the responsibility of their family’s business to her, is perhaps best remembered for her appearance in an item song (a term commonly used in Indian films for a musical/dance number that is catchy, upbeat, and often provocative) titled Alhad Mast Jawani Bemisaal that was featured in the 2003 Indian Hindi-language action crime drama film Gangaajal.

Manyata has dated –
- Sanjay Dutt – Manyata had started dating Indian actor and film producer Sanjay Dutt in the mid-2000s after they had been introduced to each other by film producer Nitin Manmohan. Sanjay was still in a relationship with a junior artist called Nadia Durrani when he started seeing Manyata. It was often reported in the media that whenever Nadia was out of town, Manyata used to come over to Sanjay’s house. When this relationship came out in the public, it caused controversy due to a couple of reasons. Firstly, Sanjay was 19 years older than her. Also, his sisters Priya and Namrata were against the relationship as Manyata had worked in some B-grade movies. Despite all the controversy and family opposition, Sanjay and Manyata got married on February 7, 2008, in a private ceremony in Goa, and later, in a Hindu ceremony in Mumbai. They have a pair of twins together – a daughter named Iqra Dutt (b. October 21, 2010) and a son named Shahraan Dutt (b. October 21, 2010). She is stepmother to Trishala Dutt (Social Media Personality, Psychotherapist) (b. 1988), Sanjay’s daughter from his first marriage, to actress and model Richa Sharma (d. 1996).
