The scrutiny surrounding Jayam Ravi and his ex-wife Aarti Ravi’s divorce has been spread across every gossip column and news headline at the moment. While the actor’s decision seemed to shock everyone initially, he later revealed his side of the story, citing how it was a well-thought-out decision. Amidst a report of the PS-I actor’s alleged linkup with a singer doing rounds, a new conjecture claims that Jayam has been evicted from his home by Aarti.

As per a report by M9 News, Jayam Ravi has apparently been removed from his house by his ex-wife, Aarti Ravi, following which he ended up lodging a complaint against her at the Adhyar police station in Chennai.

The actor reportedly sought the assistance of the police authorities to retrieve his belongings from the residence, which is located on ECR Road in Chennai. The case is still under investigation from the police team.

Ever since Jayam Ravi announced his divorce on social media, several speculations have been abuzz on the matter, questioning what actually went wrong between the two. Moreover, he was even linked up with a singer named Kenishaa Francis, citing that the duo’s secret relationship was the reason behind his broken marriage.

However, in an interview with DT Next, the actor gave a strong response to all the ongoing chatter regarding his personal life. He mentioned, “When people try to bring down the image that I have earned over the years through hard work and choice of scripts, I can only manage to laugh. It’s not easy to malign my name. If you could think that the entire thing unfolded with the announcement episode, it did not.”

Furthermore, he clarified that the rumors about him and Kenishaa were completely baseless and untrue. He mentioned that the Goan singer has in fact helped many people to combat depression and as a result, he collaborated with her to open up a spiritual healing center.

In yet another interview with the Hindustan Times, Jayam Ravi staunchly remarked that he is ready to fight for the custody of his sons, Aarav and Ayaan, from his ex-wife Aarti during their divorce proceedings at the court.

He expressed, “I want custody of my children—Aarav and Ayaan. I am ready to fight this divorce out in court for 10 years, 20 years, or however long it takes. My future is my children; they are my happiness.”

More trouble awaits Darshan Thoogudeepa as Income Tax officials on September 24 filed a petition in Sessions Court to seek permission to raid his residence. It is pertinent to mention that Darshan is currently in judicial custody for his connection to the alleged brutal murder of Renuka Swamy. 

As per the India Today report, sources have confirmed that the income tax officers issued notice to the Kannada actor on Tuesday to inspect documents at his house. Apart from that, they visited the Bellary Jail (where the actor is currently lodged) to record his statement regarding the funds allegedly involved in the crime.

For the unversed, Darshan is accused of paying Rs 30 lakh to people to cover up the murder of Renuka Swamy and surrender on his behalf. Further, the India Today report suggested that an earlier investigation had revealed that Thoogudeepa borrowed Rs 40 lakh from one of his friends to pay off other accused to destroy evidence linked with the murder. Additionally, as per reports, the Kannada star confessed to the same in a statement to the police.

Meanwhile, in the latest turn of events, Darshan filed for a bail petition after spending 100 days in prison. However, the court adjourned his bail plea till September 27. On the other side, three accused in the Renuka Swamy case, Keshav Murthy, Nikhil Naik, and Karthik, were granted conditional bail. Moreover, the court also dropped murder charges against them. 

The brutal murder of Renuka Swamy first came into the limelight when Darshan Thoogudeepa and his rumored girlfriend Pavithra Gowda were arrested on June 11. As per several media reports, the victim made derogatory comments against Gowda, and this instigated Darshan to take revenge against Renuka Swamy. Apart from the duo, 15 others were also arrested in connection to the case.
