There are many floating theories as to why Salman Khan did away with his manager of 14 years, Reshma Shetty, to hand over the reins of his business to his family. A close friend of the Khan family finally spills the beans. “His business manager did a wonderful job of putting Salman’s finances on the right track. She made sure he got what he deserved for all the films and events. She eliminated all those who exploited his stardom and got rid of all the freeloaders,” he says.

But in the process, she also ended up alienating Salman’s own immediate family from his career. Says the friend, “Salman allowed her to take all the business decisions. In fact, she also put his family in the queue for his dates. The family took it in their stride as they have always kept Salman’s profession separate from his personal life. But the manager took things a little too far when she apparently didn’t allow Salman on Sohail’s comedy show on television.”

Sohail, it seems, was keen on having Salman make a guest appearance on Chote Miyan, the comedy show that he judges. “Sohail was heard complaining about this to his friends. When Salman got wind of it, he decided to do away with the manager,” adds the friend.
