Music director and actor GV Prakash Kumar and his wife Saindhavi had recently announced their separation. In a joint statement, the couple cited irreconcilable differences after 11 years of marriage. Through their social media accounts, Kumar and Saindhavi shared the news with their fans and requested privacy during this challenging period. In the aftermath, numerous comments criticising GV Prakash's character and attributing the separation to him surfaced. Now, Kumar has strongly responded to the situation.
GV released a statement in Tamil affirming that their separation was mutual and expressing how the unwarranted comments were distressing for those involved. "It's disheartening to see people debating about the union or separation of two people without proper understanding. It is unacceptable to pass comments on personal lives of people just because they're celebrities. Have Tamil people's honour come down so much that they do not realise how their comments might hurt people?"
"The reason behind our separation has been conveyed to our family members and friends. We took this decision after careful consideration. I'm writing this to convey that your comments, whatever the intentions may be, are hurting. Please respect the emotions of everyone. My thanks to everyone for their support," he added.

GV Prakash's separation post
Director and actor's post read, "After much reflection, Saindhavi and I have decided to part ways after 11 years of marriage, for the sake of our mental peace and betterment while preserving our mutual respect for each other. We kindly ask the media, friends and fans to understand and respect our privacy during this deeply personal transition. Acknowledging that we are growing apart, we believe this is the best decision for each other. Your understanding and support means a lot during this difficult time."
Kumar and Saindhavi's love story blossomed during their school years, leading to a strong bond between them. After nearly a decade of companionship, they tied the knot in a lavish ceremony in 2013. The arrival of their daughter, Avni, in April 2020, brought further joy to their lives.
