Kamal Haasan's Ex-Wife Hits Back At Alimony Claims

Vani Ganapathy, renowned danseuse and Kamal Haasan's ex-wife, condemned Kamal's claims of going bankrupt and moving into a rented house after paying her the alimony as a part of divorce settlement. In an interview to an English news daily along with his daughter Shruti Haasan on Father's day, Kamal said that he went bankrupt after his divorce with his first wife.

Refuting these claims, Vani said that Kamal never owned a flat during their marriage that lasted from 1978-1988 and him moving into a rented house after divorce has no truth to it. Without disclosing the amount, Vani said that the alimony wasn't too big and that the court would not have allowed to make someone go bankrupt for paying alimony.

Vani Ganapathy further said that she has not been on talking terms with Kamal for several years and that dragging her name into his personal issues after so many years has left her shocked and that her family is quite upset with Kamal's statement. Kamal, after divorcing Vani Ganapathy, married Sarika, which again ended up in a divorce.
