The relationships in the Indian film industry are quite unpredictable and volatile as link-ups and break-ups are quite common among the actors and actresses. There have been many instances in which we have seen celebrity couples getting separated after many years of marriage and Dhanush-Aishwarya Rajinikanth are also one of them.
Dhanush and Aishwarya tied the knot in the year 2004 and recently in January this year, they announced their separation after 18 years of marriage. They have two sons – Yatra and Linga and their separation was quite dignified one as both restrained themselves from talking in the media about their personal matter.
While Dhanush is a famous actor who mainly works in the southern industry and has also worked in a couple of Hindi movies, Aishwarya who is the daughter of famous superstar Rajinikanth is a director and a successful singer as well.
Recently, Aishwarya Rajinikanth took to Twitter for announcing the release of a Telugu music video directed by her but it was Dhanush’s tweet that grabbed eyeballs as while congratulating her, he called her “friend”. This is what Dhanush wrote while sharing her tweet, “Congrats my friend @ash_r_dhanush on your music video #payani https://youtu.be/8R6lIeuYDFw God bless”.
Congrats my friend @ash_r_dhanush on your music video #payani https://t.co/G8HHRKPzfr God bless

Aishwarya also responded soon and thanked Dhanush for his best wishes, “Thank you Dhanush….Godspeed”

This may be a normal exchange between Dhanush and Aishwarya but Twitterati went crazy because Dhanush addressed Aishwarya as a ‘friend’, many of them didn’t like it and this is how people reacted:

Yeah I know, it's their private life. It's not our business. But calling her friend in public in this situation, could have been avoided. @ash_r_dhanush pls change your username 😭#Thalaivar169 https://t.co/CBbIuiC2CA pic.twitter.com/1HZ54362Jg
