After over two years since their public announcement of separation, actor Dhanush and filmmaker Aishwaryaa Rajinikanth have officially filed for divorce. The news, reported by India Today, indicates that the couple submitted their divorce petition under Section 13 B for divorce by mutual consent at the Chennai family court.
The journey towards their divorce began in 2022 when Dhanush and Aishwaryaa announced their decision to part ways through social media platforms. Dhanush’s note on X (formerly Twitter) expressed gratitude for their 18-year journey together as friends, a couple, and parents. The couple requested privacy and understanding from the public during this challenging time.
Their separation marked a significant transition in their personal lives, with Dhanush and Aishwaryaa focusing on individual growth and understanding. The couple, who tied the knot in 2004, are parents to two sons, Yatra and Linga.
Despite their separation, both Dhanush and Aishwaryaa have remained active in their respective careers. Aishwaryaa made her directorial comeback with the film Lal Salaam, featuring Rajinikanth in a cameo role. Meanwhile, Dhanush’s recent project, Captain Miller, premiered on Prime Video in February, and he is gearing up for an upcoming biopic where he will portray music maestro Ilaiyaraaja.
The legal proceedings for Dhanush and Aishwaryaa’s divorce are expected to progress soon as they navigate this new chapter in their lives. Fans and well-wishers continue to offer their support and respect for their decision while hoping for the best for both parties.
