She also emphasised the need for privacy during her recovery.
Saira Banu and AR Rahman announced their separation in November last year, and the shocking end of their 29-year-long marriage left many of their fans heavy-hearted.
Amid media speculation surrounding their separation, Saira addressed the public through a voice note. She clarified that her decision to take a break from Rahman was due to her physical illness over the past few months. She urged YouTubers and the media not to speak negatively about him, describing him as “a gem of a person and the best man in the world.”
