Sanjay Dutt got married to his wife Maanayata Dutt once again after 16 years. The couple’s video from a temple has gone viral where they are seen taking ‘pheras’ (The circumambulation ritual at the wedding ceremony in which the bride and groom walk around a sacred fire seven times).

Sanjay Dutt-Maanayata Dutt renew wedding vows
Sanjay can be seen wearing a saffron dhoti-kurta while wearing a tilak (An ornamental spot worn on the forehead chiefly by Hindus as a sectarian mark) on his forehead. Maanayata can be seen walking beside him dressed in a white printed salwar-suit while covering her forehead. Sanjay and Maanayata can be seen walking around the havankund (a vessel that holds the sacred fire in Vedic rituals), while priests chanted wedding mantras.
This ritual is known as the saat pheras or saptapadi. Each phera represents a promise the couple makes to each other forever. The pheras show the couple’s commitment to a lifelong partnership and the special bond that connects them.
Maanayata also shared an older picture of herself and Sanjay at a temple sitting in front of havankund.
