AR Rahman’s estranged wife Saira Banu has opened up about their separation and addressed the rumours floating online linking the music maestro to his bassist Mohini Dey. She revealed that she had been physically unwell for some time and wanted to take a break from the composer. She was quoted as saying, “I’ve been physically unwell for the last couple of months. That’s the reason I just wanted to take a break from AR.”
She continued, “I trust him with my life. That’s how much I love him.” She also requested YouTubers and Tamil media not to say anything bad against AR Rahman.
“I request you to stop false allegations. God bless, and my sincere prayers that we are left alone and given a space. We have not officially announced anything yet. Stop tarnishing his name, which is absolutely rubbish. He is a gem of a person,” said Saira.
AR Rahman and his bassist Mohini Dey announced their separation on the same day, sparking rumours of a link between them. Earlier, the music composer sent a legal notice to slanderers and asked them to take down their defamatory content.
