After nearly three decades of marriage, Oscar-winning composer A.R. Rahman and his wife Saira Banu have decided to part ways. In a statement shared through Saira Banu’s legal counsel to an Indian news outlet, the couple acknowledged the challenges that led to this difficult decision.
The statement revealed that the couple’s relationship faced several issues over the years, making this separation an inevitable conclusion. “Ending a long-standing marriage was not an easy choice for either of them,” the statement said, adding that the decision was made after much contemplation and mutual respect.
According to India Today, both Rahman and Saira emphasized that their separation stems from a desire to resolve persistent emotional struggles while preserving the dignity and honor they hold for one another. The couple expressed that despite their deep affection, certain irreconcilable differences created a growing distance between them.
Saira’s legal representative mentioned that this decision was taken with great pain and appealed for privacy during this challenging time. The couple hopes to navigate this period with minimal intrusion into their personal lives.
This announcement marks a turning point for the renowned composer and his wife, who had previously stood as a symbol of enduring partnership in the public eye.
