Dhanush and his ex-wife Aishwaryaa decided to part ways after 18 years of marriage. The former couple who share two sons – Linga Raja and Yatra Raja, shocked everyone when they announced their marital split in 2022. Today, we will take a trip down memory lane to the time when Dhanush grabbed eyeballs for talking about his ex-wife Aishwaryaa. The Raayan actor recalled his first meeting with his former wife and stated that Aishwaryaa is “100 times simpler than her father” and legendary actor Rajinikanth.  

In a throwback interview with Times of India, Dhanush was asked about what attracted him to his then-wife Aishwaryaa and asked if her being Rajinikanth’s daughter was the major inclination. 

To this, the Kubera actor denied it and said, “I don’t see her (Aishwaryaa Rajinikanth) like that. I like her simplicity. If you think her father is simple, meet Aishwarya. She is 100 times simpler than her father. Aishwaryaa treats everybody as an equal and can be friends with anybody. I like the fact that she is bringing up our sons extremely well.”

For the unversed, Dhanush and Aishwaryaa exchanged wedding vows through an arranged setup. The former couple married on November 18, 2004, in a grand ceremony. Dhanush and Aishwaryaa embraced parenthood for the first time in 2006. The couple were blessed with a boy after 2 years of marital bliss. Later, in 2010, Dhanush and Aishwaryaa became parents to another boy- Linga. It is worth mentioning that Dhanush shared an equally beautiful relationship with Rajinikanth and the latter had even spoken about him on several occasions. 

While everything seemed perfect, the duo took social media by storm after announcing their divorce through social media posts. Later in April 2024, they officially filed for divorce after living separately for a couple of years and decided to part ways legally as well.

Triptii Dimri is enjoying the current phase of her professional journey. Starting off her career with Laila Majnu, over the years, she has been a part of several impactful projects. Following her back-to-back releases, the actress is on the path of glory to solidify her position in the industry. Reflecting on her initial days, the actress recently revealed that she decided to not go back without making it big in Bollywood after someone ‘taunted’ her.

In a recent interview with The Times Of India, Triptii Dimri recalled how a hurtful comment encouraged her to stay back in Mumbai. She shared, “Someone taunted me and said something very mean, and that was the day I thought I can’t leave the city without making it.” She noted when one is new to the industry, one often couldn’t differentiate between right and wrong.

The 30-year-old emphasized that something that is right and worked in one’s favor may not work for another. “Those days, there was a lot of confusion and chaos. There is a lot of chaos now, too, but I prefer the current chaos over that chaos. Now, I have no time to breathe, eat or sleep,” she further added.

Triptii further mentioned that one should always enjoy the process and the journey. Citing her own example of hardships, she shared that there used to be days when she had no work. The actress recalled being rejected from every audition that would put her in self-doubt. Nevertheless, she shared that there would also be days where she wasn’t supposed to go, but she somehow landed and cracked the role.

“There were days when I would be putting wallpaper on my walls because I had nothing to do. I would tell myself that a phase will come when you won’t have time to do this. I have a lot of gratitude that those days have come,” she further recalled.

On the work front, Triptii was last seen in the Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video alongside Rajkummar Rao. Going further, she has highly-awaited horror-comedy, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 alongside Kartik Aaryan, Vidya Balan, and Madhuri Dixit in the pipeline, poised to release on November 1, 2024.
