There’s a growing buzz in the South Indian film industry regarding a potential reconciliation between actor Dhanush and his ex-wife, filmmaker Aishwaryaa Rajinikanth. The former couple, who parted ways in 2022 after 18 years of marriage, might be giving their relationship another chance—at least, that’s what recent reports and social media hints suggest.
Dhanush and Aishwaryaa Rajinikanth shocked their fans in 2022 when they announced the end of their 18-year-long marriage. The news left their supporters heartbroken, as the couple decided to pursue their independent lives while co-parenting their two sons, Yatra and Linga. However, recent developments have led many to believe that a reconciliation could be on the horizon.
The Instagram Post That Sparked Reconciliation Rumors
Rumors began swirling after Aishwaryaa Rajinikanth shared a picture on her Instagram account during Onam celebrations. She posted a photo of herself enjoying a traditional sadhya meal served on a banana leaf. While the post appeared to be a simple, low-key celebration of the festival, what grabbed attention was the fact that Dhanush dropped a “like” on it.
Although it might seem like a minor interaction, this social media engagement between the ex-couple sparked a wave of excitement among fans, leading many to speculate that a reconciliation could be on the cards.
Aishwaryaa’s First Comment on Dhanush Post-Divorce
Earlier in March 2024, Aishwaryaa Rajinikanth made her first public comment about Dhanush since their divorce. In an interaction with the press, she praised music composer Anirudh Ravichander’s career in South cinema and credited Dhanush for being a key supporter in launching Anirudh’s career.
She said, “I am happy that he has become one of the most sought-after music directors. However, his entry into the film industry has no connection with me. He is my cousin, but his musical talents were recognized by Dhanush. He encouraged him to compose the songs of 3. His entry into the cinema industry was fully because of Dhanush.”
This statement further fueled speculation, as it indicated that the former couple continues to maintain a respectful and positive relationship even after their split.
Co-Parenting and Family Balance
For the unversed, Dhanush and Aishwaryaa share two sons, Yatra and Linga. After their separation, Aishwaryaa was granted primary custody of their children. Despite their divorce, both parents have ensured a balanced schedule to make sure their sons spend time with both of them. The boys, however, predominantly live with their maternal grandfather, the iconic Rajinikanth.
What’s Next for Dhanush and Aishwaryaa?
On the professional front, Dhanush is gearing up for the release of his much-awaited film Kubera, and he has also signed another upcoming project, Idly Kadai, which will mark his 52nd film. Meanwhile, Aishwaryaa Rajinikanth continues to focus on her directorial career and raising her children.
Conclusion
While there is no official confirmation from either Dhanush or Aishwaryaa about their potential reconciliation, the social media hints and their public statements have led to widespread speculation. Whether the ex-couple decides to rekindle their relationship or remain on amicable terms for the sake of their children, their journey continues to captivate fans and media alike.
