Rajinikanth's younger daughter Soundarya too, parted ways with ex-husband Ashwin Ramkumar, and later married Vishagan Vanangamudi in 2019
Last night, actor Dhanush and his wife Aishwaryaa Rajnikanth shocked fans with their separation announcement. They both were the most popular and loved couples of Kollywood (Tamil film industry). Dhanush and Aishwaryaa have been married for 18 years-long and have two sons named Yatra and Linga.
The news has sent shockwaves across the nation and among the couple's fans. Some heartbroken fans started sharing their (Dhanush and Aishwaryaa) pictures and old videos on Twitter and Instagram. A few supported their decision, and some criticised it.
Soundarya, Rajinikanth's younger daughter, showed her support by changing her social media display picture featuring her and sister Aishwaryaa's childhood days with their daddy (Rajini).
Talking about Rajinikanth's younger daughter, a graphic designer in the Southen film industry and directed films like Kochadaiiyaan and Velaiilla Pattadhari 2, was once divorced. Yes, Soundarya was first married to Chennai-based industrialist Ashwin Ramkumar in 2010 and ended their 7-year marriage in 2017.
The two, Soundarya and Ashwin Ramkumar, decided to part ways due to irreconcilable differences. Soundarya and Ashwin have a 6-year-old son named Ved.
Soundarya is also the founder of Ocher Picture Productions and directed her father in India's first motion capture 3D Tamil film Kochadaiiyaan. She later married industrialist turned actor Vishagan Vanangamudi.
Cut to the present. After the news was out, many Rajinikanth fans and social media users started tweeting to Rajinikanth to show their love and support. The divorce news of his elder daughter Aishwaryaa just came after two days after the superstar met with fans and media outside his Chennai house on the occasion of Pongal.
