These were the THREE conditions that led to Nayanthara and Prabhu Deva’s breakup

There was a time when Nayanthara and Prabhu Deva’s love story was the most talked-about romance in the film industry. Their relationship, which started during the making of 'Villu', had fans and media buzzing with speculation. What seemed like a fairytale romance, however, ended abruptly, leaving many wondering what went wrong. According to Asianet Tamil, their breakup was triggered by three major conditions that Prabhu Deva set before marriage—one of which ultimately led to their separation.
Nayanthara’s past romance and her transition to a new chapter
Before her relationship with Prabhu Deva, Nayanthara had already been in the headlines for her romance with Simbu. Their love story blossomed on the sets of 'Vallavan', and they even traveled abroad together. But things took a turn when their private photos were leaked, allegedly from Simbu’s side. Feeling betrayed, Nayanthara ended the relationship and remained single for a while. It was during this phase that she met Prabhu Deva, and their bond quickly grew stronger. At first, they kept their relationship private, but soon, they started attending public events together, making their love official.
The three conditions that changed everything
As their relationship deepened, Prabhu Deva took a significant step by divorcing his first wife, Ramlath, to be with Nayanthara. She was even willing to convert to Hinduism for him, showing her commitment to their relationship. However, Prabhu Deva had three major conditions for their future together. While Nayanthara agreed to convert and accepted that his children from his first marriage would always remain a priority, the third condition created a major conflict—he wanted her to quit acting after marriage. Despite multiple discussions, Nayanthara refused to give up her flourishing career, leading to increasing tensions between them.
A painful breakup that paved the way for a new future
Eventually, their disagreements reached a breaking point, and they decided to go their separate ways. Though the breakup was painful, it marked a turning point in Nayanthara’s career. She later found love with filmmaker Vignesh Shivan and went on to become one of the most successful actresses in Indian cinema. Meanwhile, Prabhu Deva moved on and married doctor Himani Singh. Looking back, their breakup was not just the end of a relationship but also the beginning of new chapters in both their lives. On the work front, Nayanthara was recently seen in the film 'Test'. The movie also features Madhavan in a pivotal role.
