Honestly, in today's times, this is the most dignified way to announce a separation. No mudslinging, no blame game. They are setting a good example, especially for their kids. More power to them.

This is heartbreaking. They won Nach Baliye together! But if they've chosen peace and mutual respect, we should respect that. Hope the media and public give them the space they've asked for.

It's a very mature statement. In a country where divorce/separation is still heavily stigmatized, this kind of respectful co-parenting message is important. The kids' well-being is clearly the priority.

While I respect their privacy, one has to wonder if the constant pressure of being a 'celebrity couple' in the public eye takes a toll. It's never easy. Wishing strength to their entire family.

They fostered two children and then had their own. That takes a lot of love. Even if the marriage didn't last, the family they built will. Hope Tara, Khushi, and Rajveer get all the love and support.
