Rajinikanth with Soundarya and Ashwin on their wedding day. File photoChennai: Superstar Rajinikanth's younger daughter Soundarya Friday filed a divorce petition in a family court here.
Soundarya and Ashwin Ramkumar tied the knot at a grand wedding ceremony in 2010 which was attended by the who's who of the film, politics, and business world. They have a one-year-old son, Ved.
Claiming difference of opinion between them, a mutual consent divorce petition was filed in the court.
After reports about her troubled marriage came out in September, Soundarya confirmed that she has separated from her industrialist husband and that divorce talks were on.
"News about my marriage is true. We have been separated for over a year and divorce talks are on. I request all to respect my family's privacy," the Kochadaiiyaan director had tweeted in September.
Soundarya is now directing her brother-in-law Dhanush, who is married to her sister Aishwarya, in Velai Illa Pattathari 2 (VIP 2).
