Raheema posted on her Instagram stories, sharing a serene view from her window. She captioned it: “Through every hardship, there is ease. -Your Lord is going to give you & you will be satisfied. Verses to live by.”

Rahman and Saira, married for 29 years, have three children—Khatija, Raheema, and Ameen. The couple shocked fans on November 19 by revealing their decision to separate. Saira cited emotional strain as the primary reason for the divorce.

Her lawyer, Vandana Shah, released an official statement addressing the situation: “After many years of marriage, Mrs Saira has made the difficult decision to separate from her husband Mr AR Rahman. This decision comes after significant emotional strain in their relationship. Despite their deep love for each other, the couple has found that the tensions and difficulties have created an insurmountable gap between them, one that neither party feels able to bridge at this time.”  

The statement continued: “Mrs Saira emphasised that she has taken this decision out of pain and agony. Mrs Saira requests privacy and understanding from the public during this challenging time, as she navigates this difficult chapter in her life.”

The following day, Rahman addressed the separation in a heartfelt note, describing it as a “shattering” decision and expressing their hope to have reached “the grand thirty.”

Writing on X (formerly Twitter), he said: “We had hoped to reach the grand thirty, but all things, it seems, carry an unseen end. Even the throne of God might tremble at the weight of broken hearts. Yet, in this shattering, we seek meaning, though the pieces may not find their place again. To our friends, thank you for your kindness and for respecting our privacy as we walk through this fragile chapter. #arrsairaabreakup”
