10 Jun
Summary
- Aarti Ravi petitioned for Rs 40 lakh monthly maintenance.
- Unpaid child expenses since April 2025 highlighted.
- High Court mandated a two-week deadline for a decision.
In Chennai, actor Ravi Mohan faces a significant financial demand as part of ongoing divorce proceedings with his estranged wife, Aarti Ravi. Aarti Ravi has formally petitioned the Family Welfare Court, seeking Rs 40 lakh in interim monthly maintenance for herself and their children. She asserts that crucial expenses, including educational costs, have been unmet since April 2025, placing a substantial burden on her.
Concerned about delays, Aarti Ravi escalated the matter to the Madras High Court. The High Court has issued a directive, mandating the Family Welfare Court to adjudicate the maintenance plea within a strict two-week timeframe. Ravi Mohan's subsequent attempt to secure additional time for the court to process the petition was denied by the High Court, reinforcing the original deadline.
The couple, married in 2009 after a lengthy relationship, concluded nearly 15 years of marriage before announcing their separation. As the divorce proceedings continue in Chennai, Ravi Mohan remains active in the film industry, with recent announcements of his involvement in upcoming projects.
