The Akshay-Salman Rift, Is Salman’s Former Manager Responsible?
That things are not hunky-dory between Akshay Kumar and SalmanKhan is the buzz in Bollywood right now. It all started when Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar joined hands with Karan Johar for a proposed historical epic on the Battle of Saragarhi.
When Salman fell out with Karan Johar over Salman’s brother-in-law Ayush’s launch as a leading man(Johar apparently declined to produce Ayush’s launch film after agreeing to do so) Salman expected Akshay also to bow out of the Saragarhi project. When however Akshay expressed a willingness to continue his partnership with Johar without Salman in it, Salman was deeply wounded.
To add insult to injury Akshay decided to employ the services of Salman’s former business manager Reshma Shetty, although Salman sacked her unceremoniously.
Sources close to both the superstars say their relations are at the moment “pretty strained”, though Akshay was seen in the finals of Bigg Boss on Sunday. But without his new business manager Reshma Shetty in tow.
She has discreetly decided to stay out of Salman Khan’s range of vision.
