The long-time partnership between director Puri Jagannath and actress Charmme has come to a close. The two would be seen together at most film events and Puri had even made Charmme a partner in his production house. The star had also produced Jyothi Lakshmi, a film directed by Puri Jagannath and was later also involved in the production of Loafer as well.
Despite strong rumours of a romantic link between them — both have stoutly denied everything. Now though, according to a source, Puri became so fed up with her “increased” involvement in all his deals he told her to “get out”.
“She had taken control of everything — even controlling the list of people wanting to meet him. He came to know of these matters later, and was irked with her attitude. He has also told her she will not be a part of his films,” the source said.
The split is seemingly good news for those close to Puri. “His staff are all happy with this decision and they are all actually jubilant,” added the source.
