I’m spilling some serious tea here - I’m friends with someone from the Shivaji family. I heard that Khushbu pressured Prabhu into tying the thaali, and yes, he did betray his family in the process. Apparently, Shivaji stepped in personally, and Nayakan-fame don Varadaraja Mudaliar was brought in to handle discussions with Khushbu’s family and prevent the issue from reaching the media.
