Ravi Mohan and Aarti's divorce battle intensifies in court; both file their petition
Actor
Ravi
Mohan
, popularly known by his screen name
Jayam Ravi
, is currently at the center of a personal controversy that has drawn public attention. The actor, who enjoyed a clean image and a stable family life for over a decade, surprised fans when he announced his separation from wife Aarti earlier this year.
The news sparked widespread speculation, especially since the couple had always kept their relationship private. While neither party publicly revealed the exact cause of the rift, the suddenness of the announcement and the emotional responses on social media kept the issue in the spotlight.
Ravi Mohan files for divorce citing irreconcilable differences after 15 years of marriage
Ravi Mohan married Aarti in 2009 after a long-standing romance, and the couple have two sons. For years, they were considered one of Kollywood's low-key yet strong couples. However, irreconcilable differences have led to their separation. The actor officially filed for divorce in the
Chennai Family Welfare Court
, marking the beginning of legal proceedings.
The court, in turn, directed both parties to appear at the reconciliation centre to explore the possibility of an amicable settlement through mediation.
Both parties appear in Chennai court
In a recent hearing, both Ravi and Aarti appeared before the 3rd Additional Family Welfare Court in Chennai. According to News 18, presiding judge Thenmozhi heard Ravi Mohan's formal petition, which detailed his reasons for seeking a divorce and emphasized that there was no scope for reconciliation.
Aarti, on her part, has filed a counter-petition seeking alimony, asserting her right to financial support after the separation.
The judge took note of both petitions.
Court defers next hearing to June 12
With no consensus reached, the court has now directed both sides to submit written responses and has adjourned the case to June 12. As the high-profile case unfolds, fans and the media alike are closely watching how this once-private love story will come to a legal close.
