Music legend AR Rahman and wife Saira Banu recently announced their separation after 29 years of marriage a few days ago. Following their divorce announcement, there have been rumours which surfaced after Rahman's bassist, Mohini Dey, also announced separation from her husband, Mark Hartsuch. AR Rahman's son AR Ameen, took to social media to defend his father, calling the rumours as 'baseless'.
The youngster wrote, "My father is a legend, not just for his incredible contributions, but for the values, respect, and love he has earned over the years. It’s disheartening to see false and baseless rumors being spread. Let us all remember the importance of truth and respect when speaking about someone’s life and legacy. Please refrain from engaging in or spreading such misinformation. Let’s honor and preserve his dignity and the incredible impact he has had on all of us. #EPI"
