In the same interview, Vandana Shah was asked if a huge alimony is attached to Saira and AR Rahman’s divorce.

The lawyer doesn’t rule out the reconciliation as well.
She remarked she never stated that reconciliation isn’t possible, and rather, she’s optimistic and always talks about love. Vandana further remarked that in their separation announcement, it’s quite clear that the couple had taken the decision out of pain.

“I have not said that reconciliation is not possible. I am an eternal optimist, and I always talk about love and romance. The joint statement is quite clear. It talks about pain and separation. It’s a long marriage and a lot of thought has gone into coming to this decision, but nowhere have I said that reconciliation is not possible”.
