It’s a break up to 13 years long relation of Kamal Haasan and Gauthami. The news is confirmed by Gauthami herself on her official Twitter and even wrote a detailed story about it in her blog.
Gautami said, "The decision was a process taken over time. We aren't small children. Things change with time. If it doesn’t work out, you have to accept it finally."
Speaking about Kamal’s reaction towards break up, Gauthami said that he took it in a “matured and sympathetic manner". Gautami, who is the costume designer for Kamal Haasan's upcoming film "Sabaash Naidu", also noted that she would honour her professional commitment, stating, "I am a professional, that is a professional commitment, I will definitely do it."
