Anirudh Ravichander breaks silence on rumours of marriage with Kavya Maran — ‘completely false'
Popular music composer Anirudh Ravichander has firmly denied rumours suggesting he is getting married to Kavya Maran, daughter of media baron Kalanithi Maran and owner of the IPL team Sunrisers Hyderabad.
The speculation began after a Reddit post claimed that Anirudh and Kavya were in a relationship and planning to tie the knot. The post, which quickly gained traction on social media, also mentioned that actor Rajinikanth had personally spoken to Kalanithi Maran about the relationship, fuelling further speculation of an upcoming wedding.
This led to widespread discussion online, with several fans and media outlets picking up the story. However, Anirudh put an end to the rumours with a clear post on X (formerly Twitter). He wrote, 'Marriage ah? lol .. Chill out guys. pls stop spreading rumours (sic),' putting to rest all speculation.
Fans responded quickly to his clarification, with many thanking him for addressing the matter directly. One user commented, 'Thank God. You clarified quickly. Otherwise, YouTubers would have made several videos (sic).'
Another person wrote, 'LOL dude got scared just with rumors imagine if it was reality (sic).'
While neither Kavya Maran nor anyone from the Maran family has commented publicly on the matter, Anirudh's statement seems to have cleared the air.
Anirudh, known for composing music for several Tamil and Telugu blockbusters, has always maintained a low profile regarding his personal life. With this rumour now debunked, fans can expect him to stay focused on his upcoming music projects, which continue to receive strong appreciation from audiences across India.
In his work front, Anirudh last composed music for Ajith's 'Vidaamuyarchi'. He will next compose music for upcoming films like 'Kingdom', 'Coolie', 'Madharasi', 'Love Insurance Kompany', 'Jana Nayagan', 'The Paradise', 'Jailer 2', and SRK's 'King'.
For now, it's clear there are no wedding bells ringing for the composer – just more music.

One picture shows her looking stunning in an orange sharara as she smiles widely at Akhil's baraat. Another photo shows the sound set at his baraat with 'Akhil for the kill' written on it. Another shows her hugging her father-in-law Nagarjuna at Akhil and Zainab's wedding reception. Some pictures also show her being goofy or video chatting with friends.

Awards from government deserve special respect, says Dil Raju
The Telangana State Gaddar Film Awards, revived after a 14-year gap, were expected to be a grand celebration of cinematic excellence and cultural pride but the glaring absence of several Tollywood stars has triggered disappointment. Film Development Corporation (FDC) Chairman and film producer Dil Raju did not mask his frustration on the absence of stars, though he did not name them openly. When awards come from the government, they deserve special respect. The recipients should attend personally, no matter how busy they are, is what he indicated at an interaction with the media thanking them for the support. Notable absentees were stars like Prabhas, Mahesh Babu, NTR and Ram Charan, who are showered with love by the film lovers, and of course, the governments through concessions to them. Several top heroines too were missing from the grand event that was held after a gap of 14 years and for the first time after the formation of Telangana. There will be eyebrows raised and questions asked, which Mr. Dil Raju couldn't ask given his predicament of being close to the top stars producing movies with them. And this was after meticulous planning and invitations extended in advance. In a veiled message, Mr. Dil Raju expressed his displeasure at the absence, reminding that Chief Minister Revanth Reddy, though allotted just one hour as per schedule, chose to stay for nearly two-and-a-half hours. The gesture of the government, first in reviving the awards, and later the CM himself spending nearly three hours, should be seen how the film industry is respected. The absence of top stars has also raised some pertinent questions, how serious is the Telugu film industry when it comes to Telangana and its cultural initiatives. The same celebrities regularly grace the film award shows of private groups, and even travel abroad for those shows. How come the government-conducted and culturally significant event is missed. Film lovers are reminded of how, in the undivided Andhra Pradesh, State film awards were star-studded affairs, considered prestigious and eagerly awaited. The revival of the awards in Telangana was expected to bring back that lost glory, but the poor turnout by top actors has dampened that spirit.
