Neelima further added, "She informed me that she was planning to start a family and that she wants to become a mother and that it would be her priority.

"As soon as she heard that, she was very happy and on board this. She told me that this would be her last film and that after this, she wants to take a long break and have children, plan her family.

We request our fans, well wishers and the media to support us during this difficult time and give us the privacy we need to move on. Thanking you for your support."
