As a dedicated follower of the South Indian film industry, I have to say that 2024 has been a rollercoaster year for fans like me. The news of celebrity divorces has left us heartbroken and stunned, especially the separation of AR Rahman and Saira Banu after 29 years of marriage. It feels like the fairy tale ending we all wished for has turned into a sad reality.
In the year 2024, numerous celebrity divorces took people by surprise, and one of the most talked-about was the split between AR Rahman and his wife Saira Banu, who had been married for 29 years. This unexpected news saddened many online users, as the couple had kept their private life under wraps but appeared to have a strong and steady bond. Now, let’s explore the list of Southern celebrities who shared their separation news this year.
1. Jayam Ravi and Aarti
Reflecting back on last September, I found myself at a crossroads when I chose to move forward separately from my wife, Aarti. In a heartfelt message shared on X, I expressed that this decision was a painful one but necessary for us both. I asked for understanding and respect for our family’s privacy as we navigate through this challenging time. In essence, after careful contemplation, conversations, and introspection, I made the tough choice to dissolve our marriage.
In a couple of days, Aarti increased the stress level by disclosing that Jayam hadn’t shared his decision with her beforehand and they hadn’t discussed it earlier.

2. GV Prakash and Saindhavi
This year in May, music composer and actor GV Prakash Kumar announced his separation from his ex-wife Saindhavi. After spending 11 years together as a married couple, they chose to part ways amicably. They broke the news of their divorce to their followers via an official statement on social media.
Following careful consideration, Saindhavi and I chose to end our 11-year marriage. Our goal is to prioritize our individual wellbeing and growth, while continuing to hold each other in high regard.

3. Yuva Rajkumar and Sridevi
Earlier this year, Kannada actor Yuva Rajkumar and Sridevi Byrappa mutually sought divorce following a series of severe accusations exchanged during press conferences organized by their respective lawyers. Later, Sridevi shared on her social media platform that she chose to stay silent to preserve her dignity.
Yuva Rajkumar’s former spouse expressed, which roughly translates, “It’s truly unfortunate and painful to witness someone who should uphold professional dignity stooping to publicly character assassinate a woman without any truth. I am profoundly disappointed with how this situation has been managed, particularly given the false narrative that has emerged.

4. Bhamaa and Arun Jagadish
This year, it is said that Malayalam actress Bhamaa has separated from her husband, businessman Arun Jagadish. Although an official statement hasn’t been made yet, shifts in the actress’ social media activity have fueled speculation about a possible divorce.
In simpler terms, she posted a picture on Instagram alongside her child, stating, “I didn’t realize how powerful I could be until I became a single mom, and being strong was the only option available to me. Here’s my little girl and me.” This caption implies that she may have separated from her husband.

5. AR Rahman and Saira Banu
After 29 years of being married, AR Rahman and Saira Banu amicably agreed to separate due to an emotional disconnect that had developed between them. They asked for understanding as they navigated this difficult period, and their children kindly requested that everyone respect their privacy during this time.
As a devoted admirer, I’d like to share a poignant message penned by AR Rahman on his social media platform that touched everyone deeply. His words read, “We had wished for thirty glorious years, but it seems everything, hidden as it is, has its untimely conclusion. Even the throne of divinity might quiver under the weight of shattered hearts.

Meanwhile, the couple are parents to three children together: Khatija, Ameen and Raheema.
