After Rajinikanth returned from the U.S. in August this year, he stayed with Soundarya for a while and tried to pacify the differences between the couple. But Soundarya and Ashwin have gone ahead with their decision to get separated.

Soundarya is a graphic designer, director and producer and owns her production company, Ocher Studios. She made India’s first motion capture film, Kochadaiyaan with her father Superstar Rajinikanth in the lead. She also paved way for the blockbuster Kabali by bringing the director, Pa. Ranjith and Rajinikanth together.
