Dhanush was not on the list for Anirudh Ravichander’s wedding. And in Kollywood, everybody noticed.

Anirudh is the nephew of superstar Rajinikanth. Dhanush was once family too, married to Rajinikanth’s daughter Aishwarya Rajinikanth before their separation in 2022 and subsequent divorce.

The guest list, it seems, was curated keeping the comfort of Rajinikanth’s family in mind. Both Rajinikanth and Aishwarya attended the ceremony in Greece.

A larger reception is scheduled in Chennai on November 21, 2026, where a broader circle of film industry colleagues is expected to gather.

The irony is hard to miss. It was Dhanush who introduced Anirudh as a music composer in the 2012 film 3, launching the famous “DnA” duo and the global phenomenon Why This Kolaveri Di. Yet, years later, social media discussions still revisit rumours of creative differences and a temporary fallout between the two.

Inside photos shared by the newlyweds and media outlets do not show Dhanush anywhere at the venue. While Dhanush stayed away, superstar Rajinikanth stole the show, dancing to his chartbuster Manasilaayo alongside newlyweds Anirudh and Kavya.

Anirudh’s once in a lifetime love

Anirudh shared the first pictures from his Greece wedding with Kavya Maran. And the words said it all. He called her his ‘once in a lifetime’ love.
