Samantha Refused Alimony, Aarthi Demands Rs 40 Lakh: Netizens Spark Heated Comparison

The ongoing divorce case between actor Ravi Mohan (Jayam Ravi) and his wife Aarthi Ravi has taken a sensational turn, with Aarthi filing a petition demanding ?40 lakh per month as maintenance. This move has triggered a wave of comparisons online—most notably with actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu, who reportedly declined any alimony from her former husband Naga Chaitanya during their separation.

Social media is abuzz with discussions, with many users drawing a stark contrast between the two high-profile cases. Netizens are recalling how Samantha, despite being offered a blank cheque by Naga Chaitanya’s father Nagarjuna, refused any financial settlement, stating she didn’t want a single paisa.

“Now that’s true dignity,” wrote one user. “Samantha chose self-respect over money, while Aarthi demanding ?40 lakhs monthly sends a different message.”

The drama intensified when, shortly after the court hearing, Ravi Mohan posted a photo on Instagram captioned “News incoming”, appearing to be on a phone call. Many interpreted the post as a subtle jab at Aarthi’s legal demand, while others mocked the situation further with memes calling his rumored partner Kenisha as “New income-ing.”

While opinions are divided, the debate highlights how celebrity divorces often become public spectacles, with emotional and financial choices open to public scrutiny. As the legal proceedings continue, the internet seems eager to weigh in—not just on the case, but on what defines grace, dignity, and fairness in a separation.
