Tamil actor Jayam Ravi has announced his decision to divorce his wife, Aarti, after 15 years of marriage, a move that has left Aarti and their children 'blindsided.' Aarti, who was not informed beforehand, expressed her shock and sadness, emphasizing that such a significant matter should have been handled with more respect and privacy. She has attempted multiple times to have an open dialogue with Ravi but was not given the opportunity. Both Aarti and Ravi come from prominent film families, making their separation highly publicized. Aarti has been subjected to public scrutiny and false narratives that blame her for the split, but she insists her primary concern is the well-being of their children. The divorce petition has been filed by Ravi and is set for a hearing on October 10.
