In a conversation with Kairali TV, the actress had told that they loved each other very much. The whole industry knew about their relationship. ‘Our families wanted us to get married.

Kamal Haasan asked her to wait but Srividya did not
Srividya told that Kamal Haasan wanted her to wait for him, but the actress did not want to delay the marriage further. “I did not want to do anything against the wishes of my family. Kamal got angry and asked if this was my final decision? When I said yes, he left and did not even call me for a long time. Then one day he came to our house. My mother asked Kamal why don’t you both wait for 4-5 years? You are going to become a big actor. You both can find even better people. You both are just 22 years old. Why hurry? I think this is a very young age to get married.”
Srividya was Kamal Haasan’s first love
However, Kamal got furious on hearing this and left immediately. Their breakup was finalised and in no time Kamal married Vani Ganapathy. Srividya said, ‘I was very sad. I felt like a failure as a woman. I kept thinking, what does he have that I don’t? However, we never became close friends after that.

When Vani accused Kamal Haasan
In a 2015 interview, Kamal Haasan had said that his divorce with Vaani had left him on the verge of bankruptcy. While Vaani reacted to these claims in a conversation with ‘Deccan Chronicle’. She said, ‘It has been 28 years since we got divorced. I have always been silent on these issues because it is a personal matter. We both have moved on but why is he behaving like this? He even refused to give me the flat we lived in and the things I used there. What else can I expect from such a man? I came out of the marriage but a lot happened during that time.’
