Lissy Separated From Priyadarshan, Says Her Divorce Was ‘Ugly And Fierce’

Lissy Lakshmi, popular Malayalam actress married ace director Priyadarshan in 1990. They were married for 24 years before the couple filed for divorce in 2014. They have a son and daughter, who are both studying in the U.S. Lissy’s divorce finally came through and the couple are now officially separated. Lissy issued a statement about her divorce calling it uncivilized and fierce.

My marriage with Mr. Priyadarsan officially ended today. We both have signed the final papers at the Honorable  Family Court here in Chennai today. This has been a real ordeal. In recent times all celebrity divorces, from Hrithik and Sussane to Dilip and Manju to most recently Amala and Vijay all have been mutually agreed divorces. I am sure it also must have been painful to those couples but whatever differences they may have had, they all decided to respect each other.

Ours was the only exception where it was often fierce and uncivilized battle on and off the courts until a compromise was reached at the Honorable High Court, Chennai. Perhaps the ugliness of our divorce proceedings says all about the kind of marriage we have had.

Anyways, I feel relieved now. This is the end of a long and often very difficult road. All of us can now move on. I thank all my lawyers, friends and well wishers for their unconditional  support and prayers. I thank those friends in the media who have been kind with their words. I am grateful to both my children for all their love affection and support. Above all, I thank God Almighty.
