What the original statement said
The Indian Express's January 17, 2022 account reported that Dhanush and Aishwaryaa Rajinikanth had announced their separation. It described an 18-year relationship and a request for privacy. The statement expressed a personal decision; it was not itself a published judicial decree.

The newspaper's later Tamil report describes a Chennai family court granting divorce. That is a separate development from the 2022 announcement. The inherited address compresses the stages into one headline, but a clear timeline should distinguish the couple's initial statement from the court's later action.
This article does not speculate about reasons, assign fault or infer arrangements for family members. It preserves the public record at the level needed to identify the story. For either person's creative work, use current film and entertainment coverage rather than treating a separation announcement as an explanation of every subsequent professional decision.
