The two had filed for a divorce in October last year at the Bandra family court, and after divorce counseling in November, they had to wait for a period of six months to figure if they wanted to still go for the divorce or withdraw their plea.

Afer hearing arguments from Farhan and Adhuna, the court has officially granted them a divorce. However the custody of their two children, Shakya and Akira, will remain with Adhuna and Farhan will have full access to their kids at all times.

Yesterday at the court, the judge called out their case twice in the morning, but the two appeared only in the second half of the day along with their lawyers.

They directly addressed the principal marriage counselor VS Athavale, and then they went to the judge, M M Thakare, where they were granted divorce.

The duo had announced their separation last year, and were married in 2000, after dating for two years. However, their divorce plea was also ‘mutual’, and both of them were on friendly basis even after they announced the split.

The two are expected to keep their equation positive and contribute in the upbringing of their children. They had also come together to celebrate their daughter Akira’s birthday in February this year. The reason behind their divorce is not confirmed yet.

New Delhi, May 5: Actor-turned-politician Kangana Ranaut intended to target an opposition leader but mistakenly ended up attacking her BJP colleague instead. 

A similarity in names - Tejashwi and Tejasvi - was behind Ms Ranaut's fumble. "There's a party of spoilt princes... whether it's Rahul Gandhi who wants to grow potatoes on the Moon, or Tejasvi Surya who does hooliganism and eats fish," she had said.

RJD leader and former Bihar deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav was supposed to be the original target of her diatribe as one of his videos where he was seen eating fish became a major flashpoint between the BJP and the opposition recently.

Tejasvi Surya, incorrectly referred to by Ms Ranaut during an election rally yesterday, is BJP's Lok Sabha candidate from Bengaluru South constituency in Karnataka.

Meanwhile, Mr Yadav has responded to a clip of Kangana Ranaut's statement. "Ye mohtarma kaun hai?" (Who is this lady?), he posted on X.

Kangana Ranaut has been verbally bashing the Congress party since the BJP fielded her as their Lok Sabha candidate from Himachal Pradesh's Mandi. Congress leaders Vikramaditya Singh - her opponent in Mandi - and Rahul Gandhi have been the main targets on her dartboard.

While addressing a public rally in the Sundernagar area of Mandi Parliamentary Constituency yesterday, Ms Ranaut took a jibe at Mr Singh and Mr Gandhi over dynasty politics and said that both of them have a magic stick for development and talk only about non-practical things.

The Congress hit back saying the 37-year-old actor should first check the facts about her party leaders and speak about dynastic politics. National Media Coordinator for the Congress, Amrit Kaur, also questioned her qualifications on which she got a BJP ticket from Mandi.

The Mandi Lok Sabha constituency will go to polls on June 1, in the seventh phase of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
