AR Rahman’s Divorce: Celebrity Lawyer Vandana Shah Talks About the Real Cause Behind Bollywood Breakups
The lawyer of AR Rahman’s ex-wife, Saira Banu, has stated that divorces in Bollywood often occur because of ‘boredom.’ According to the lawyer, many individuals in the industry tend to transition from one marriage to another for this reason.
AR Rahman and his wife, Saira Banu, are ending their marriage after 29 years. Saira shared the news of their divorce, and soon after, AR Rahman posted an emotional message on Twitter to confirm it. Celebrity lawyer Vandana Shah provided the official statement for Saira, and her insights about marriages and challenges in the entertainment industry have sparked a lot of discussion online.
In a recent podcast, Vandana Shah talked about why celebrity marriages often break down. She mentioned that in Bollywood, it’s usually not infidelity that causes separations, but rather boredom. According to her, celebrities often go through multiple marriages, quickly moving from one relationship to another. While one-night stands are quite common, the real problem is the monotony that leads to relationship failures. Vandana stated, “Their lives are very different. I do not think infidelity is the reason for the failure of their marriages in Bollywood. The cause is boredom. They move from one marriage to another because of boredom, which is peculiar to Bollywood and super-rich families.” She pointed out that this pattern isn’t something she sees in many other types of marriages.
Vandana also mentioned that outside interference, such as involvement from the spouse’s mother, brother, and even father-in-law, often makes issues in celebrity marriages worse. She shared an example from the South Indian film industry, where a controlling father-in-law caused distress for the daughter-in-law. She noted, “There’s a South Indian couple where the father-in-law is pulling all the strings, leaving the daughter-in-law unhappy. Her husband is a tiger in bed and otherwise, but in front of his father, who is worth around Rs 10,000 crore, he becomes like a cat.”
This statement has caused quite a stir online, with many people speculating about a potential divorce between Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Others have drawn connections to the relationship between Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Naga Chaitanya, linking their situation to Vandana’s comments.
