Fed up of trying to get Sanjay Dutt to keep to his professional commitments, his 7-month old association with his business manager Reshma Shetty has been called off unceremoniously and with immediate effect.

Apparently Shetty and her star-client parted ways over his inability to follow schedules.

Apparently instead of listening to her well-meaning advice Dutt ticked his business manager off in not too polite a language.

Not one to take high-spirited behaviour Shetty chose to put in her papers.

First Dharam Oberoi, now Reshma Shetty. Sanjay Dutt has lost a second business manager in a year. This time the business manager walked out after she could no longer control her star-client's growing inability to cope with his schedules.

Apparently on Tuesday Shetty had a serious discussion on her failure to connect with her star-client.


Says a source close to Reshma Shetty, `During the discussion, she realized there was just no way she could convince Dutt to modify his work methods the way she convinced her other star-client Salman Khan to modify his work style. `

Rather than continue to be stonewalled by broken schedules Shetty opted to walk out of Sanjay Dutt's career management job.

Says a source, `Reshma Shetty thought she would do for Dutt what she did for Salman. A career turn-around. But for miracles to happen you need a two-way motivation. Salman listened to her advice, followed her guideless, picked up the films and endorsement deals worked out by her. It was hoped that Sanjay Dutt too would fall into a more organized work pattern. But that wasn't meant to be. `

Apparently Reshma Shetty and Sanjay Dutt had a massive argument on Tuesday after which he she walked out on Dutt.
