Is Priyanka Chopra Reshma Shetty’s next?

Bollywood talent manager Reshma Shetty and her celebrity management company Matrix are on a roll. If sources are to be believed, Reshma will be working with Priyanka Chopra next. She already has top Bollywood names on her celebrity list including Karan Johar, Alia Bhatt, Katrina Kaif and Akshay Kumar. Trade sources are waiting to see if Priyanka’s name will be the next feather in her hat.

According to a source close to the actress, “Priyanka’s been looking for a new talent manager recently. On her last visit to Mumbai, she had a couple of meetings with Reshma that went off well. While they didn’t sign on the dotted line, Priyanka appeared keen to hire Reshma as her talent manager in India.”

Apparently, Priyanka was here for a few days and had too much to do. So her talks with Reshma remained inconclusive. If Reshma is hired, Priyanka’s earlier talent manager Mrinaal Chablani will be shown the door. Meanwhile, the actress’ PR is ably being handled by celebrity publicist Rohini Iyer of Raindrop Media.

Reshma was Salman Khan’s talent manager for nine years before their infamous fallout earlier this year. She is credited with transforming Salman’s image in the public eye. As soon as she lost Salman’s account, Reshma signed on with Akshay Kumar.

This is the first time the Khiladi was working with a talent manager. But his decision didn’t go well with Salman, gossip sources say, because no sooner did Reshma take up Akshay’s work than Salman opted out of the film Battle of Saraghi that he was co-producing with Karan Johar and in which Akshay was to play the lead, It’s believed that Reshma got all three together for the project and after she split with Salman, theDabangg star wasn’t interested in being part of the film any more.

Incidentally, Salman and Priyanka share a good equation and have worked together in films like Mujhse Shaadi Karogi and God Tussi Great Ho. Interestingly, while one Bollywood camp is waiting to see his reaction over Reshma joining Priyanka, another camp says it was Salman who advised Priyanka to work with Reshma!
