Madhuri 038; Riku Split

Theres a common saying in the film industry that there are no permanent friends or enemies. This has been reiterated by the fact that Madhuri Dixit-Nene decided to terminate the services of her manager of almost 30 years,Riku Rakesh Nath. They parted ways after Madhuri decided to hire the services of a talent management firm the latest trend in the industry instead of the age-old tradition of using the services of a manager. A source from the industry says,Madhuris husband wanted her to hire the services of a corporate firm instead of an independent manager. During her early days,Nath played a prominent role in making Dixit-Nene the superstar of the masses. He started handling the actors work soon after her debut in Abodh 1984 and played a key role in bagging several of her successful films Tezaab,Beta,Saajan,Dil and Hum Aapke Hain Koun!,among others. After Dixit-Nene quit Bollywood in 2002,Nath handled the careers of Ameesha Patel and Kangna Ranaut briefly. But upon Dixit-Nenes return last year,he started working with her again and is instrumental in her recent television stint in Jhalak Dikhlaa Ja.
