Kamal Haasan's ex-wife Vani Ganapathy's latest photos are viral

Actor Kamal Haasan's ex-wife Vani Ganapathy is an Indian classical dancer. She began performing at the age of seven and traveled all over the world to perform. She lives in Bangalore, where she founded a dance academy called Sanchari. In 1978, Vani married actor Kamal Haasan. She appeared with him in the 1975 film Melnattu Marumagal. After her marriage, Vani worked as a costume designer for Kamal Haasan on various films. Ten years later, in 1988, they divorced. Recently, Vani Ganapathy took part in a program and photos from the event are currently going viral. In the photos, Vani – who is now 73 years old – looks fit and beautiful, which attracts everyone's attention.

In the viral picture, Vani Ganapathy draped a black silk saree with orange border. She paired it with matching orange blouse. In the photo she can be seen sitting in an auditorium. She opted for glamorous makeup, including brown eyeshadow, kohl-lined eyes and nude lipstick. She completed her look with a heavy necklace set, matching bangles and a red bindi. She looked elegant.

Talking about her personal life, Vani Ganapathy broke her silence about her divorce from the Tamil superstar in 2015 when he reportedly claimed that she had left him on the verge of bankruptcy. In an interview, Vani shared, “We have been divorced for 28 years and I have always refrained from mudslinging because it is a very private matter. Things may be discussed in the heat of the moment when everything is still fresh, but we have both moved on. Why is he acting like a possessed man?”

Vani Ganapathy stated that she decided to speak out because she did not want anyone to think that her financial security was only due to the alimony she received from Kamal Haasan.

Vani Ganapathy dismissed Kamal Haasan's alleged complaint and said, “Maintenance and divorce go hand in hand. But me bankrupting him is completely wrong. In what court in the world has alimony been allowed to bankrupt someone?”

She added that she was completely shocked when she read the news. She said: “His ego may have been hurt when I left the marriage, but a lot has happened since then.”

After his divorce from Vani Ganapathy, Kamal Haasan started dating actress Sarika. In 1986, the two had their first child, daughter Shruti Haasan. Two years later, in 1988, Kamal and Sarika got married. The couple then had their second daughter, Akshara, in 1991. In 2004, Kamal Haasan and Sarika parted ways.
