Bollywood's famous singer AR Rahman and his wife Saira Bano have separated after 29 years of marriage. Saira announced the divorce and after her statement, AR Rahman shared a post on social media confirming it. Now celebrity lawyer Vandana Shah has issued an official statement on behalf of Saira and made shocking revelations about marriages and failures in showbiz.
In a recent podcast, Vandana Shah discussed the reasons behind the breakdown of celebrity marriages. She explained that in such marriages, especially in Bollywood, it is not infidelity but boredom that often leads to separation.
The lawyer said celebrities often have multiple marriages, moving from one relationship to another. Though one-night stands are quite common, the real issue is monotony, which leads to the breakdown of relationships.
“We had hoped to reach the grand thirty, but all things, it seems, carry an unseen end. Even the throne of God might tremble at the weight of broken hearts. Yet, in this shattering, we seek meaning, though the pieces may not find their place again. To our friends, thank you for…

Infidelity is not the real reason
Vandana said, 'Their lives are very different. I don't think the reason for the failure of marriages in Bollywood is infidelity. It is boredom. They go from one marriage to another out of boredom, which is a unique thing for Bollywood and rich families. Vandana stressed that this is something that she has not seen in other marriages.
Vandana also revealed that interference from outsiders including the spouse's mother, brother, and even father-in-law often adds to the challenges in celebrity marriages.
Vandana further shared a high-profile divorce in the South Indian film industry where the daughter-in-law was unhappy because of her father-in-law's controlling nature. She said, 'There is a South Indian couple where the father-in-law is controlling everything and his daughter-in-law is unhappy. Her husband is a lion in bed but in front of his father, he becomes like a cat. The father-in-law's net worth is around Rs 10,000 crore.'
This statement of the lawyer has caught everyone's attention. Many people have also linked it to the divorce rumors of Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. At the same time, some people feel that this is about Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Naga Chaitanya.
