Sanjay Dutt, the Bollywood icon, has often been in the spotlight for his controversial personal life. His first marriage to the late actress Richa Sharma garnered significant attention. However, their marital bliss was short-lived due to numerous troubles. Tragically, Richa’s life was cut short by cancer, leading to her passing on December 10, 1996. She breathed her last at her parents’ home in New York. She left behind their daughter, Trishala Dutt.

Sanjay Dutt filed for divorce from Richa Sharma in 1993, sparking various speculations about the reasons behind their separation. While some attributed it to Richa’s terminal cancer, others believed Sanjay’s close association with Madhuri Dixit played a role.
