Please stop making false accusations against him.”

Why Saira Left Chennai

Saira also shared that her health had been deteriorating over the past few months, which is why she had to leave Chennai and seek medical treatment in Mumbai. “I needed medical attention, and that’s why I came to Mumbai. A.R. has a very busy schedule in Chennai, and I didn’t want to disturb him or the kids,” she explained.

She further clarified that if she had stayed in Chennai, people would have speculated about her whereabouts, which is why she chose to relocate temporarily. Saira made a direct appeal to the media, saying, “Please, please don’t say anything bad about A.R. Rahman. He is a wonderful person, and I have complete faith in him.”
