Just recently, popular South actor Dhanush and his wife Aishwaryaa announced their decision to part ways after 18 years of relationship. This comes after another power couple Naga Chaitanya and Samantha Ruth Prabhu declared their separation.
Such sad news forced many people to question the institution of marriage. Some even associated several reasons why divorce rates have increased in the current times.
Out of 33 classmates 18 are divorced.. .What are we millennials lacking? Patience/compassion/self centred /lack of empathy/too much of ambition????

Taking to Twitter, he compared marriage to ‘jail’.
Nothing murders love faster than marriage ..The secret of happiness is to keep loving as long as it remains and then move on instead of getting into the jail called marriage

He went on to tweet that only dumb people get married.
Love in a marriage lasts for lesser days than the days they celebrate it , which is 3 to 5 days

Smart people love and dumbos marry

According to him, not marriages but divorces should be celebrated.
Only divorces should be celebrated with sangeet because of getting liberated and marriages should happen quietly in process of testing each other’s danger qualities

This is because the ‘evil custom’ is thrust upon society and triggers a ‘continuous cycle of happiness and sadness’.
Marriage is the most evil custom thrust upon society by our nasty ancestors in promulgating a continuous cycle of unhappiness and sadness
