The marriage between Yuva Rajkumar and Sridevi Byrappa was controversial from the start, facing strong opposition from Raghavendra Rajkumar and his wife, who were not in favour of the match.

Despite their reservations, the couple went ahead with their wedding, bolstered by the support of the late Puneet Rajkumar, who stood firmly by their side.

Over the past year, the couple’s relationship has been under considerable strain. Both families have made numerous attempts to mediate and resolve the issues, but these efforts have ultimately proven unsuccessful. A significant period of separation, marked by Sridevi’s absence from the family for the past six months, has further highlighted the discord.

Yuva Rajkumar’s decision to file for divorce underscores the severity of their marital issues. While Yuva has taken a clear stance by initiating the divorce proceedings, Sridevi Byrappa’s response to the petition remains uncertain, leaving questions about the future course of action.

The couple’s strained relationship was underscored by Sridevi’s notable absence during important family events, such as the release of Yuva’s movie. Despite their attempts to reconcile, the differences proved too great, leading to this significant decision.
