November 29, 2024: Tamil superstar Dhanush and film producer Aishwaryaa Rajinikanth, once considered South India’s most iconic couple, recently divorced after 18 years of marriage one. However, an old statement from Dhanush has resurfaced, revealing surprising details about their union. Contrary to popular belief, Dhanush said that his marriage to Aishwarya was not a love marriage and the two never dated before getting married.
how it all started
On November 1, 2004, Dhanush announced his marriage to Aishwarya Rajinikanth at a press conference. At the time, he responded to rumors that they were a love marriage. according to RediffDhanush explained, “All I knew was that Aishwarya was a friend of my sister. The media started contacting us and that prompted both families to sit down and discuss the idea of getting married. Eventually, they thought, ‘Why not?'”
He even thanked the media for its inadvertent role in bringing them together, saying: “So, I want to thank the media for getting me married to Aishwarya. I reiterate that our marriage is not a love marriage.”
Dhanush also spoke about their two-year age gap, saying: “The age factor doesn’t matter to me at all.”
Separated after 18 years
On January 17, 2022, Dhanush and Aishwarya announced their separation and issued a heartfelt joint statement. it reads, “For 18 years, we have been together as friends, as a couple, as parents and as each other’s well-wishers. It has been a journey of growth, understanding, adjustment and adaptation. Today, we stand where we part ways.”
The Family Welfare Court in Chennai finalized the divorce after both parties agreed that reconciliation was no longer possible. Despite their breakup, Dhanush and Aishwarya continue to co-parent their two sons, Linga and Atla, and they often spend time with their parents.
Rajinikanth remains silent
While fans were shocked by the divorce, Aishwarya’s father, South superstar Rajinikanth, chose not to make any public statement about the divorce.
Dhanush’s revelations about the arranged marriage add a new perspective to their journey, showing that even the most high-profile marriages can begin under unexpected circumstances.
