Dhanush and Aishwaryaa were married on November 18, 2004. They had two children: a daughter named Yatra in 2006 and their son Linga in 2010. Throughout the whole marriage period, they led more or less a private life; sometimes just sharing glimpses of family moments at social media.

However, Dhanush and Aishwaryaa have tried to remain co-parenting to their children post-divorce.
Divorce Finalization Despite Ongoing Case by Nayanthara Against Dhanush
Dhanush had filed a civil lawsuit against Nayanthara and her husband Vignesh Shivan for using the footage of the film Naanum Rowdy Dhaan in the Netflix documentary by Nayanthara titled Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairytale. The claim by Dhanush was that the documentary has used behind-the-scene shots from the film without any proper permissions.
Thus, he sent a legal notice to Nayanthara and the streaming platform, Netflix, seeking compensation amounting to Rs. 10 crores. Nayanthara issued an open letter on social media that responded to Dhanush’s actions, which marked a public exchange of dialogue between the two actors in the dispute. The case is still in the court, as the High Court of Madras is waiting for the replies from Nayanthara and Vignesh Shivan before proceeding to the next hearing session.
Public Opinion and Industry Response
The news of Dhanush and Aishwaryaa’s divorce has received immense attention from fans, colleagues, and industry peers. Some people have come out to support and understand the situation while others have questioned the timing and motives of the divorce. The fans of both actors have been divided, and the discussions in social media platforms have ranged from empathy to curiosity on their decision to part ways.
Many of Dhanush and Aishwaryaa’s colleagues from the Tamil industry have come out to acknowledge the difficulties both may face after separation, but not one of the industry bodies made any statement on their divorce.
