Yuva Rajkumar Files Petition To Divorce His Wife
After a long, devoted relationship spanning over half a decade, the duo made their commitment official in May 2019. The wedding was nothing short of a star-studded affair with esteemed actors from the Kannada cinema, as well as top stars from South Indian cinema like Chiranjeevi of the Telugu film industry and Rashmika Mandanna, gracing the occasion with their presence.
It has been noted that Sridevi has been living separately for over a year now. This was remarkably noticeable during the debut of Yuva Rajkumar’s inaugural movie “Yuva” back in March. As for the next court hearing, it’s pinned for the 4th of July. Yuva Rajkumar, despite currently being overseas, hasn’t touched upon the matter as yet. It’s said that the actor is pursuing a separation from his spouse, citing reasons of mismatched compatibility and emotional distress. Fans of Dr. Rajkumar are disappointed with the latest news of a divorce within the famed Rajkumar family. This is an unprecedented event for a family traditionally known to hold strong marital bonds.
The news of Yuva Rajkumar’s sudden divorce certainly took us all by surprise, especially coming on the heels of the recent breakup between renowned Kannada rapper and music maker, Chandan Shetty, and his social media icon wife, Niveditha Gowda. It seems like the Kannada film industry is going through a difficult time.
Yuva Rajkumar, who was initially known as Guru, and his sweetheart Sridevi savored a pretty strong friendship that went on for over seven years before they decided to take the plunge and get married. Initially, their union wasn’t greatly appreciated by Yuva’s family, but with the intervention of the late Puneeth Rajkumar, their love story was eventually blessed. Their wedding was indeed a momentous event, drawing a lot of attention from the public, and was made even more special with the attendance of esteemed celebrities from the Southern Indian film industry, including Mega Star Chiranjeevi.
