In addition to providing insight into the breakup of AR rahman and saira Banu, she also disclosed the primary cause of divorce among certain famous couples.
Vandana Shah reveals the real reason behind celebrity divorce
In contrast to common opinion, Vandana revealed in The Chill Hour podcast that adultery is rarely the reason for divorce in Bollywood. In bollywood, where people have seen it all, celebrity couples frequently break up because they are bored. Although this is quite strange, it is true among extremely rich bollywood households. Vandana went on to say:
"They have quite different lifestyles in Bollywood. I don't believe that many marriage breakdowns are caused by adultery. What led to the dissolution of that marriage? One is marriage ennui since you've witnessed it all. They switch marriages due to boredom, which is quite unusual in bollywood and extremely wealthy households.
Vandana further disclosed that people's sexual lives in bollywood differ greatly from those of regular people. Their lives are greatly impacted by the significantly higher expectations placed on them during sexual activity. One-night encounters and adultery are also common. However, boredom and not spending enough time with one's spouse are frequently the primary causes of divorce.
"Secondly, I believe they lead quite separate, private sexual lives. Compared to a typical person's marriage, the expectations for a sex life are far higher. Third, one-night encounters aren't as important as they once were, and adultery does happen. I only say this based on the examples that have come to me; I'm not affiliated with Bollywood. Boredom, not being given enough credit, or having to listen to others outside the marriage are the biggest problems. Others may include the father-in-law, the mother, or the giving brother.
According to Vandana: "Every long marriage has its ups and downs, and I am really glad that if it has ended, it has done so in a respectable way. rahman and saira will keep encouraging one another and sending each other best wishes.
