Amala Paul and husband Vijay's troubled marriage has been in news for the last couple of weeks. The couple who got married in a big fat wedding two years ago have now decided to part ways.
It was earlier reported that the reason behind their differences was that Vijay's parents were not happy with Amala going on a 'signing spree'. In fact, while speaking to IB Times, Vijay's father made it clear that since she was committing to way too many movies after their marriage, Vijay was unhappy.
However, now the director has said that all such reports were false. IANS quotes Vijay as, "I have been reading plenty of news on the separation of me and Amala based on random assumptions and false information. I would like to make it clear that the only truth in that is the separation and rest all is untrue. The reason behind the separation is unknown to anyone but me. I'm conscious about my social responsibility; I have so far directed 9 films. I have always portrayed women in my films with dignity and self-respect, and it reflects the amount of respect I have towards them. I strongly advocate women and their freedom of choice...When Amala wanted to continue her career in films, I supported her to the best of my ability. And she continued acting even after marriage. The new found accusation that I or my family was stopping her from work is completely untrue."
On the professional front, the actress will next be seen in Hebbuli while the director is waiting for the release of his horror film Abhinetri. 28-year-old Amala had her new Malayalam film 'Shahajanum Pareekuttiyum' released last month.
