Pandya Store actress Pallavi Rao opens up about her separation from husband Suraj Rao after 22 years of marriage. The actress exclusively shared what made her take such a decision and also reacted to the trolls ever since she made the announcement. Here's what the actress exclusively shared with mid-day. 

Pallavi on deciding to get separated


Pallavi shared what made her take the decision, "Whenever something like separation happens, it isn't a sudden decision. Especially for people like us who are old school. It didn't happen overnight; we have been married for 22 years. I see these days people separate in a few months. This wasn't sudden, but then there comes a saturation point where one has to choose between their life and what they have been in. I made a choice in life, although it didn't happen before. I chose to make this decision for myself. As someone who is in the acting profession, I have been working rigorously for all these years and trying to balance my personal and professional life for the past 22 years. But then I reached a point to decide."



Reacts to trolls 

She further reacts to trolls, "Ever since I opened up about my separation, I have been reading a lot of trolls commenting on my life decision. Some wrote that 'budhape mein divorce liya', while some wrote that I was doing all of this for publicity. Had it been a publicity stunt, I would have separated from my husband long ago. I would like to shut them all down at once so that it is my life and my decision on whether I want to continue my marriage or not. I am not saying that marriage is bad; had it been bad, it wouldn't have lasted for this long. My daughter is adult enough to make her own decisions, and so do I have the right to decide whether I want to continue the endurance journey or leave it."

Pallavi also shared that they got separated mutually. "I would call it destiny that my husband and I have parted ways; the decision is mutual. Our journey was beautiful, and he has been my guide as well. But there came a time when we had to make this tough decision. Unlike other couples that we often see who bring their relationship into the public forum, I refuse to do so; all I wanted to share is that we had separated, but not discuss what happened in my marriage or relationship. When everyone keeps saying that there is no age to love or learn, then there shouldn't be any age to make such tough decisions in life."
