Speaking of the separation, Nandita confirmed and said, “Yes, it is true. Subodh and I have decided to separate. Thankfully, it is very amicable. Our son is our foremost priority and as parents of a delightful and sensitive child we request that his and our privacy be respected. There’s nothing to hide and there’s nothing more to be said.”

Further talking about the situation between her and Subodh, she said, “Separation is never easy, more so if you have a child. For us, our son is our main concern and we are committed to ensuring his well-being.”
