A.R. Rahman and Saira Banu Announce Separation After 29 Years of Successful Marriage

Mumbai, Nov 20 — Oscar-winning composer A.R. Rahman and his wife Saira Banu have decided to separate after nearly three decades of marriage. The news was confirmed by their lawyer, Vandana Shah, who stated that the decision came after considerable emotional challenges in their relationship.

In a joint statement, the couple expressed that despite their deep bond, the emotional strain and unresolved tensions in their marriage created a gap too wide to bridge. “This decision has not been made lightly,” the statement read. “It comes from a place of pain and agony. We kindly request privacy and understanding from the public during this difficult chapter of our lives.”

The couple, who tied the knot in 1995, are parents to three children—daughters Khatija, Raheema, and son Ameen. Ameen also shared a message on his Instagram Stories, urging everyone to respect their family’s privacy during this sensitive time.

Social Media Reactions

The announcement took social media by storm, and Rahman’s subsequent post on X (formerly Twitter) stirred a mix of reactions. In his post, Rahman shared a heartfelt message about the end of his marriage:

“We had hoped to reach the grand thirty, but all things, it seems, carry an unseen end. Even the throne of God might tremble at the weight of broken hearts. Yet, in this shattering, we seek meaning, though the pieces may not find their place again. To our friends, thank you for your kindness and for respecting our privacy as we walk through this fragile chapter.”

However, the use of the hashtag #arrsairaabreakup sparked widespread criticism. Social media users questioned the appropriateness of using a hashtag for such a personal matter. Comments ranged from disappointment to outright trolling, with one user stating, “Who creates a hashtag for this situation? Fire your admin!” Another added, “Why a hashtag for a divorce post? Are you out of your mind?”

A Painful Decision

The separation marks a significant chapter in Rahman and Banu’s lives, who have been a symbol of enduring partnership for their fans. According to Vandana Shah, the decision to part ways was rooted in mutual understanding and a recognition that their relationship had reached an impasse.

As the couple navigates this challenging period, they continue to request respect for their privacy, focusing on rebuilding their individual paths while maintaining their shared commitment to their family.

This announcement serves as a reminder of the complexities of relationships, even among those we view as icons. It also highlights the need for sensitivity in public discourse, particularly during moments of personal upheaval.
