Lawyer Sheds Light On 50 Percent Property Division As Alimony
Lawyer Sheds Light On 50 Percent Property Division As Alimony
AR Rahman and Saira Banu, a couple who have been together for 29 years, made a heart-wrenching announcement on November 19, 2024. They revealed that they have decided to part ways, a decision that was surely not made lightly. Saira Banu’s lawyer, Vandana Shah, issued a joint statement on the couple’s behalf, confirming their decision.
Saira Banu’s lawyer, Vandana Shah, reveals if her client will get 50 percent of AR Rahman’s properties
AR Rahman is one of the wealthiest music composers in the film fraternity who has worked in both the Hindi and South industries. He also has an Oscar under his name and is respected by his fans. Coming to wealth, AR Rahman owns a net worth of around Rs 1,728 crores and Rs 2,000 crores. And if his wife demands alimony, then half of it will go under her name. Talking about the same, Saira Banu’s lawyer stated:
“In India, the idea of receiving 50% alimony after divorce is a myth. And it’s not documented in law. There is no fixed percentage mandated by the legal system. This misconception has been perpetuated, making people believe that a spouse automatically gets 50% alimony upon divorce. But that is not true. The actual outcome largely depends on the arguments presented in court, the Affidavit of Assets and Liabilities submitted, and the overall context of the case.”
Vandana cleared the air, and said that wives in any way do not get half of their husband’s property as soon as the divorce is filed. The whole legal process is behind it, and the court testifies everything before passing a judgment. However, AR Rahman and Saira are amicably parting ways, so there arises no question of alimony.
When Vandana Shah talked about AR Rahman’s being linked to his bassist
In a recent interview with the ANI, Vandana Shah, a reliable source close to AR Rahman, provided insights into his divorce proceedings with his wife, Saira Banu. She clarified that the couple is currently in the process of divorce, which is expected to be amicable. When asked about the reason for the divorce, Vandana refrained from divulging specific details, but she did mention that it was due to significant emotional strain in their relationship.
Vandana further added that the estranged couple released a statement in the media to ensure that the public is informed and to prevent any unwarranted speculation. She expressed disbelief at the absurdity of people connecting AR Rahman’s separation news to his bassist, Mohini Dey, emphasising that the couple’s decision was to keep the public in the loop and prevent any unnecessary rumors.
“Yeh jo dusri unki colleague hai jinka divorce ho raha hai, kya hai yeh. Yeh kaisa rumour bhi kisne soch liya, it is such a load of nonsense. Mai ek legal term use krna chahti hoon I would like to treat it with contempt, jo logo aise mudde utha rahe hai.”
