AR Rahman Sends Legal Notice Amid Speculation Over Divorce
Oscar-winning music composer AR Rahman and his wife Saira Bhanu recently announced their divorce, sending shockwaves across social media. While both parties have requested privacy, the announcement has led to a barrage of speculation, with some social media channels and websites circulating imaginary and defamatory stories about the split. Among these, rumors have surfaced suggesting an affair between Rahman and his bassist, Mohini Dey, who also recently announced her divorce.
In response to these baseless claims, Rahman has issued a legal notice targeting those spreading defamatory content. The legal letter, shared on social media, calls out the platforms for publishing unfounded allegations and fabricating stories about Rahman’s personal life. The notice demands that the objectionable content be removed within 24 hours, warning that failure to comply could lead to criminal defamation charges under Section 356 of the Indian Penal Code.
Rahman’s legal team has taken a firm stand, stating that anyone found guilty of spreading such false information could face up to two years in prison and a possible fine. The renowned musician and his family have requested that the public respect their privacy during this difficult time, emphasizing that the narratives being circulated are nothing more than harmful fiction.
