’18
years
of
togetherness
as
friends,
couple,
as
parents
and
well-wishers
to
each
other.
The
journey
has
been
of
growth,
understanding,
adjusting
and
adapting.
Today
we
stand
at
a
place
where
our
paths
separate.
‘Aishwaryaa/Dhanush
and
I
have
decided
to
part
ways
as
a
couple
and
take
time
to
understand

better.
Please
do
respect

give
us
the
needed
privacy
to
deal
with
this.’
