Vani Ganapathy reacted to allegations about alimony and divorce from Kamal Haasan

During a conversation with Deccan Chronicle, Vani Ganapathy questioned why isn’t Kamal Haasan letting go. “For 28 years, we have been divorced.

Vani bashed Kamal Haasan for saying that alimony led him to bankruptcy. She said the claims were untrue and said, "In what court in the world has alimony been allowed to drive someone to bankruptcy? I was completely shocked when I read it. His ego must have been hurt when I walked out of the marriage, but so much has happened since. He could have said financial crisis and let the subject pass.”

Vani also added that living with Kamal Haasan for 12 years, she understood his personality very well. She stated that her smile and charm to get out of any situation. “He doesn’t answer a question if he doesn’t want to.
