Tamil actor Ravi Mohan, who is popularly known for his role in Ponniyin Selvan: I and Iraivan, recently issued an official statement against his estranged wife Aarti. He denied all the allegations made against him by Aarti. The duo has been battling their divorce case and have been accusing each other of emotional abuse on public platform. Last week, Aarti accused Ravi of being an absentee father. Now, reacting to all the claims made by his estranged wife, the actor shared a long statement ruling out all the claims. In the post, he alleged that Aarti has been using their children as a ‘tool’ to make a false narrative to have financial gain and earn public sympathy. 

In the statement shared on Instagram, Ravi Mohan wrote “While our country faces a greater collective crisis, it pains me to see personal matters litigated in the court of public opinion. We should know better than this. Watching my private life turned into gossip, twisted without truth or compassion, has been deeply traumatic. My silence was not a weakness - it was survival. But when my integrity is questioned by those who don’t know my journey or my scars, I must speak.”

He continued, “As an adult and as a surviour of years of physical, mental, emotional and severe financial abuse, (sad to add) I was also caged in isolation from ever meeting my own parents through these years, trapped in a reality that became unbearable despite every sincere attempt to heal and save my marriage. I finally found the strength to walk away from a life that had become unlivable. Choosing to walk away was not a decision I made lightly - And so, I write this to you with a heavy heart.” 

He said, “I categorically deny any fabricated claims, I will continue to stand in my truth, as I always have - with dignity, with resilience and with faith in justice. (PS: the term ex was coined in my heart the minute I chose to leave home, and it will remain so until I breathe my last.)”

“What breaks me most is seeing my children used as tools in a public narrative rooted in financial gain and to sway public sympathy, while I’ve been deliberately kept away from them since our separation. Apart from a single court-mandated meeting last Christmas, all our communication has been gradual but a well structured cut off. Bouncers now accompany them almost everywhere to percent me from ever seeing or approaching my own children, and you guys question my role as a father?,” Mohan added. 

Ravi Mohan captioned the statement pages, “All these years I was being stabbed in the back, now I’m only glad that I’m being stabbed in the chest.. First and Final One from my desk! With Love Ravi Mohan ‘Live and Let Live’”. 

Ravi Mohan On Dating Rumours With Keneesha Francis

The actor said, “With regards to Keneeshaa Francis, who was initially a friend that chose to save a drowning man, very quickly became a lifeline of support when I had nothing but tears, blood, and the courage to walk away from a life that nearly broke me.” 

He added, “She is a beautiful companion, and I assure you this - she carries light. She chose to be there, not for fame, not for attention, but out of sheer empathy and strength.” While addressing the rumours of  Keneesha Francis being the reason for his divorce with Aarti, he wrote, “If you respect my heart, then you will do the same for Keneeshaa - personally and professionally. No one can be a home-wrecker or destroy my life. Once bitten twice shy is said, but I was bitten a million times and so I know what I am doing.”

Ravi Mohan and Aarti got married in 2009. They have two children-Aarav and Ayaan. In 2024, Ravi announced his separation with Aarti.
