What are “grey divorces” and why are they suddenly trending?

Earlier this month, Rahman and Banu confirmed their decision to part ways after 29 years of marriage, citing emotional strain as a significant factor. Married in 1995, the couple shares three children: Khatija, Raheema, and Ameen.

AR Rahman is preparing to take strict legal action against anyone who has shared or will continue to share defamatory posts about his divorce or family.

On Tuesday evening, AR Rahman and his wife, Saira Banu, revealed their decision to part ways after 29 years of marriage. Coincidentally, the same day, Mohini Dey, a long-time bassist who has collaborated with Rahman for years, also announced the dissolution of her marriage. Following media speculation about a connection between the two events, Rahman and Saira’s legal team firmly denied any association.
