A ghost from Priyanka Chopra's past has come back to haunt her. The actress' ex-secretary Prakash Jaju, who was arrested for sending her lewd text messages, is now managing the career of her second cousin Meera Chopra. The buzz is that Meera has already got a plum offer from a top producer and will make her Bollywood debut next year.
Priyanka, naturally, is upset by this development. Industry sources say she had warned Meera not to associate with Jaju. But Meera felt that Jaju was the man who could shape her career. And, just like he was a crucial force in Priyanka's career early on, Jaju would be for her. But whether or not Jaju has changed, only time will tell. Jaju had taken up work for Priyanka in 2002. Although he did get her some offers, he reportedly began dominating the actress' personal space as well, forcing Priyanka to sack him. Jaju responded by filing a legal suit against her for violation of his contract. Subsequently, he revealed that Priyanka and Hurman Baweja were painting the town red. Then came the episode of lewd SMSes. And another incident with Jaju taking on Priyanka's father, Dr Ashok Chopra.
The ex-secretary confirmed that he was managing Meera's career. Meera told BT, "He is not a bad person. At least with me he has been very good and he has confirmed some meetings for me. He is the business partner of a person who looks after my work. In that capacity he also manages me." Priyanka, who is in Berlin, could not be contacted. But there appears to be a court order restraining Jaju from having anything to do with the actress and her family. This does not include her extended family. Meanwhile, Bollywood is waiting to see if Jaju's find has the same meteoric rise as Priyanka did.
