Kanika Dhillon with husband Prakash Kovelamudi
Writer Kanika Dhillon and director husband Prakash Kovelamudi have gone their separate ways. This news too came as a surprise as the two collaborated on the recent release, Judgementall Hai Kya.
Dhillon wrote the script of the Kangana Ranaut-starrer and Kovelamudi helmed the film. The couple tied the knot in 2014. It is said to be an amicable parting and the duo is open to professional collaborations. Reportedly, they have been staying apart for the last two years.
Judgementall Hai Kya also starred Rajkummar Rao in the lead. The film had been mired in controversies since its announcement. First, it was the title that had to be changed (it was named Mental Hai Kya earlier) after mental health experts termed it as "insensitive" towards people who suffer from mental health issues, then there was an issue with the release dates, and not to mention Kangana Ranaut's infamous tiff with a journalist at the song launch, which led to entertainment journalists across India thinking of boycotting the actress.
The film has done decent business at the box office, having crossed Rs 30 crore in its first week. Produced by Ekta Kapoor, the flick also features Jimmy Shergill in a pivotal role.
