The
Fight
Happened
Over
‘Politics’
It
all
started
when
Samajwadi
Party's
Amar
Singh
announced
Sanjay
Dutt's
candidature
from
Lucknow
on
his
party
ticket.
Priya
Dutt
was
upset
that
neither
she
nor
her
sister
Namrata
were
consulted
before
Sanjay
took
the
decision.
But
Priya
Dutt
Put
All
The
Blame
On
Maanayata
Dutt
While
speaking
to
HT
Priya
was
quoted
as
saying,
"He
is
far
too
busy
with
films
to
find
the
time
for
politics.
He
has
all
along
insisted
he
has
no
plans
to
enter
politics
yet,
but
every
time
he
would
issue
a
statement
to
that
effect
Maanyata
would
counter
it
by
saying,
‘No,
Sanjay
will
contest',"
Priya
said.
"She
manipulated
my
brother
into
this
situation
to
further
her
own
ambitions."
Priya
Refused
To
Consider
Maanayata
As
Her
Brother’s
Wife
"She
is
not
his
wife.
She
is
not
even
the
daughter-in-law
of
Sunil
and
Nargis
Dutt
as
Singh
claims.
She
is
just
some
woman
who
has
trapped
my
brother,"
said
Priya
when
asked
why
she
is
so
against
her."
Priya
Dutt
Had
Further
Added..
"This
is
not
the
usual
saas-bahu
kind
of
difference
between
a
nanad
and
a
bhabhi.
We
are
against
her
because
of
the
kind
of
woman
she
is.
I
cannot
even
begin
to
tell
you
what
it
means
to
have
my
father's
fair
name
sullied
by
a
woman
like
her."
However,
Maanayata
Dutt
Chose
To
Maintain
Dignity
When
asked
about
her
spat
with
Sanjay
Dutt's
sister,
she
was
quoted
as
saying,
"I'm
not
someone
to
push
for
acceptance.
I
have
never
nagged
Sanju
for
anything.
I
leave
space
for
options.
Sanju
knows
I've
tried
to
do
as
much
in
my
capacity
to
find
acceptance
with
his
sisters.
Beyond
that
he
wouldn't
like
me
to
push
myself
to
try
any
further.
Neither
would
I."
Maanayata
Accepted
That
She
Was
Indeed
Hurt
"I
am
a
woman
and
I
am
Sanju's
wife.
It
does
hurt
me.
But
I
keep
a
dignified
silence
because
firstly,
my
parents
have
brought
me
up
to
believe
it's
undignified
to
hit
out
at
people
publicly."
Maanayata
Was
Silent
For
The
Sake
Of
Sanjay
Dutt
"Secondly,
it's
my
husband's
family
and
he
loves
them.
So
for
his
sake
I
wouldn't
like
to
hurt
him
by
saying
anything.
Finally,
I
think
keeping
quiet
under
attack
is
far
more
courageous
than
attacking
someone."
‘I
Speak
Straight
From
My
Heart’
"At
no
point
of
time,
no
matter
what
the
provocation,
I
don't
want
to
wash
my
dirty
linen
in
public.
I'm
not
that
kind
of
person.
People
think
I'm
arrogant
and
rude.
The
fact
is
I'm
very
reserved
by
nature.
I
only
open
up
with
people
I
gel
with.
I
speak
straight
from
my
heart."
