Superstar Rajinikanth's elder daughter Aishwaryaa and top Tamil hero Dhanush announced their sudden separation after 18 years of marriage. It has been reported that both the parents are holding talks to reunite the couple and are hopeful of the same.

Fans hoped that they would meet and reconcile but it did not happen. Dhanush returned to Chennai and has started shooting his brother Selvaraghavan's 'Naane Varuven'.

Some reports say that the issues between the couple is not new and has been going on for more than five years and that both are firm about parting ways. Aishwaryaa recently released the promo video of her 'Musafir' and her name appears in the credit as Aishwarya Rajinikanth.

Netizens are pointing out that in all her previous works such as '3' and 'Vai Raja Vai' her name appeared as Aishwarya R Dhanush and hence are speculating that the relationship has ended. However the talented filmmaker is still using her husbands name on both Instagram and Twitter. It is the hope of most fans that the couple reconcile for the sake of their children Yaatra and Lingaa.
