After adultery charges, Rhea-lity bites Dutt

Mumbai: Sanjay Dutt is an angry man.

On Tuesday, it was learnt that the actor could face charges of bigamy and adultery for marrying Manyata, who, her ex-husband Meraj Sheikh reveals, is still legally married to him.

As if that wasn't bad enough, Dutt is now fuming over his ex-wife Rhea Pillai's disparaging comments against Manyata.

Former model Rhea Pillai was quoted recently as having cattily remarked that she gave up the Dutt name which Manyata desperately wanted.

In response to her statement, Dutt has blasted Rhea in a newspaper interview saying Rhea should also give up everything else that came with the Dutt name - which includes Dutt's financial assistance for paying off her bills.

The actor says he has been paying Rhea's monthly financial bills - including her shopping, travelling and mobile bills - sometimes to the tune of Rs 8 lakh although she's happily married to a man who is in a position to support her.

Dutt also reveals that Manyata and Rhea have met and that Manyata has bought gifts for Rhea's daughter, and always speaks respectfully about Dutt's former wife, which is why he's angry that

Rhea decided to attack Manyata for no apparent reason. Naturally, the actor says, he will not pay Rhea's bills anymore.
