Today’s blind item is a recent one from Rajeev Masand. It wasn’t that easy to figure it out as it’s clearer now. We are saying this because a similar blind item was published before and everyone assumed that it was someone else; a younger actor and his overweight father-producer. But now that things are clearer and we know the answers. Check it out below.

Bollywood Blind Item

Forgiving His Aides Their Trespasses

This A-list star who’s got a new film slated for release not far away, wants to focus on what’s important—his career—and has decided as a result to let his father deal with everything else. I reported here previously how the star and his producer father discovered that his business manager had been swindling money, and while that is usually enough ground to fire the culprits, the actor and his father have decided not to make any hasty decisions. They don’t want attention drawn to this incident and the manager remains employed for the sake of appearance only, insiders say.

Meanwhile, the liaison from the manager’s agency who shadows the star and travels with him on a daily basis has been reportedly forgiven for being in on the scam. The lady in question has been asked to ensure that nothing inappropriate occurs anymore.

The actor himself is neck deep in post-production on the new film, and even ditched a high-end magazine on the day he was meant to shoot a cover for it because he couldn’t peel himself away from the film’s edit suite. It’s focus, focus, focus for the 40-something star who realises this may be his last chance to get back on track.
