Music maestro AR Rahman is beaming with pride as his daughter Raheema recently completed her graduation from the Glion Institute of Higher Education with a focus on Hospitality, Entrepreneurship, and Innovation.

On Saturday, Rahman took to Instagram and shared a string of pictures of Raheema from her graduation ceremony.

Rahman shares Raheema with his estranged wife, Saira Banu, whom he married in 1995. The couple also has two other children, Khatija and Ameen.

In 2024, Rahman and Saira Banu announced their separation after 29 years of marriage.

In a statement shared by Saira's lawyer, Vandana Shah, the couple stated that their decision was due to "significant emotional strain" in their relationship.

"On behalf of Mrs. Saira and her husband, renowned musician Allahrakka Rahman (A.R. Rahman), Vandana Shah and Associates issue the following statement regarding the couple's decision to part ways," a part of the statement read.

The composer also shared the news on his X account, where he stated that while they had hoped to reach their "grand thirty," life had other plans.

"We had hoped to reach the grand thirty, but all things, it seems, carry an unseen end. Even the throne of God might tremble at the weight of broken hearts. Yet, in this shattering, we seek meaning, though the pieces may not find their place again. To our friends, thank you for your kindness and for respecting our privacy as we walk through this fragile chapter," read his post on X. (ANI)
