Amid 3 Marriages, 2 Divorces, 5Cr Alimony Dispute, Check Out The Controversial Love Life Of ‘Bhimla Nayak’ Pawan Kalyan

New Delhi, Mar 2: Call it Power Star or Bhimla Nayak… Telugu actor Pawan Kalyan is in the news these days. His film Bhimla Nayak is earning a lot at the box office. Once again Pawan Kalyan’s box office is ringing. The personal life of Pawan Kalyan, who turned politician after actor, director, screenwriter, has been in a lot of controversies.

Pawan has been rumored to be married three times. Pawan has been the subject of two divorces. The actor was also rumored to have paid Rs 5 crore for his divorce.

Pawan Kalyan married Nandini one year after the release of his first movie in 1997. However, his marriage did not last long. Then there was the divorce. In 2001, Pawan was in a live-in with his co-star Renu. Renu and Pawan had a son in 2004, whose name is Akira Nandan.

The fact is that he did not divorce his first wife while he was in live-in with Renu. In 2007, his first wife filed a case against him as he Pawan Kalyan didn’t divorce before marrying Renu. Living together and having kid out of the relationship does not satisfy the law to prove it a marriage, unless five important Hindu customary practices are followed. This ‘loophole’ in the Hindu Marriage Act rendered Tollywood hero Pavan Kalyan’s first wife Nandini helpless.

After three years of complete silence, the couple had finally filed for divorce in the year 2007 and after a year long battle in court, the two were granted divorce in 2008. Pawan had shelled five crores as alimony to his ex-wife, Nandini and the two had parted their ways forever. After all the legal dispute and media trials about Pawan and Renu’s relationship, the actor had announced his marriage, and the couple had entered into the wedlock on January 28, 2009.  Everything was going well in Renu and Pawan’s life, and soon they had welcomed a baby girl into their life.

After some blissful years of marital life, things had started to go awry between Pawan and Renu, but the reason wasn’t another lady. This time, the love and will to help his brother, Nagendra Babu, who was suffering from the financial crisis was the reason behind their split. Pawan was helping his elder brother, Nagendra from all corners and that hadn’t gone well with his wife, as she was concerned that her husband would give all his money to his brother. The fights had taken a whole new level, when in 2011, it was revealed that Renu had shifted to her parents’ home in Pune with her kids. Despite, Pawan’s constant visit to see his kids, the cracks were too deep to be filled back then. Finally, in 2012, the couple was granted divorce by the court.

While Pawan Kalyan was trying his best to save his marriage with Renu Desai in the year 2011, professionally, he was working in the film, Teen Maar, that was the Telugu remake of the hit Bollywood film, Love Aaj Kal. In the stellar cast of the film, there was a gorgeous Russian model and actress, Anna Lezhneva, who had played a small role in the film. But it was in the year 2012, after Pawan’s divorce, when her name started getting linked with the actor. And, in the year 2013, there were rumours that Pawan and Anna are soon going to get married on September 30, 2013. However, there were no massive celebrations, and most of the media houses had revealed that the couple had gone for an intimate wedding ceremony.

The couple used to make very less public appearances during the initial years of their marital life. But with time, Anna had started appearing with Pawan during award functions, public events, and in some of his political parties too. And in the year 2017, the couple had welcomed their first baby, who was a little prince, and they had named him Mark Shankar Pawanovich. For the uninitiated, Anna was already the mother of a young daughter, Polena Anjana Pawanova from her first failed marriage. But Pawan raised Polena as his daughter with other three kids. Since then, the actor is living a happily married life with Anna and is doing a lot of humanitarian work and is also going to be seen next in the film, Vakeel Saab, which is the Telugu remake of the Bollywood blockbuster, Pink.
