The actor Asin, widely known for portraying Kalpana Shetty in Ghajini, has reacted to rumours that she and her husband Rahul Sharma are getting a divorce. On Wednesday, Asin shared on her Instagram Stories that she and Rahul are presently taking advantage of their summer vacation. She rejected the reports, saying they were “very imaginative and completely baseless news.”
Asin wrote, “In the middle of our summer holiday right now, literally sitting across each other enjoying our breakfast and came across some very imaginative and utterly baseless ‘NEWS’. Reminds of the time we were sitting at home together with our families planning our wedding and we heard that we had broken up (laughing emoji) Seriously?! Pls do better. (Disappointed to have wasted 5mins of an otherwise wonderful holiday on this!) Have a great day you guys.”
As per sources, “Asin cleared up old photos from her feed at the start of the new year (Jan/Feb). After that, she has posted Rahul’s photos in her stories on Easter and other occasions. Whoever wrote this story conveniently forgot to notice/mention these I suppose. Don’t think anyone thought someone is going to spin such far-fetched tales at their own convenience later for sensationalism over something so silly.”
The rumours started after Asin reportedly deleted all her pictures with Rahul except one from her Instagram account. She has also removed her wedding photos from her social media profile. Currently, her last post is from her daughter Arin’s fifth birthday party. The post is dated October 2022. However, a source told HT, “They are one of the happiest couples we know. Rahul is a doting husband and father and absolutely adores Asin. They are the sort of genuine down to earth couple one rarely sees and they love to keep away from drama and attention. They are very low profile and keep away from social media exactly for this reason. It’s ridiculous to see this written about a couple like them. In fact, they are on a holiday together with their daughter and are having a good laugh about it.”
Asin has kept only one photo with her husband on her Instagram. The post is a tribute to the late actor Rishi Kapoor. The black-and-white photo is from Asin and Rahul’s wedding reception, which was attended by Rishi.
Asin’s husband Rahul is the co-founder of Micromax. She quit acting after her marriage to Rahul in 2016. Rahul and Asin welcomed their daughter Arin in 2017.
Asin was a well-known face in Tamil and Telugu films. Asin made her acting debut with the Malayalam film Narendran Makan Jayakanthan Vaka in 2001. She made her Bollywood debut with Aamir Khan’s Ghajini in 2008. Asin went on to star in films like Ready, Housefull 2, Bol Bachchan and Khiladi 786. Her last film All Is Well was released in 2015.
