Pawan Kalyan's third divorce has put his private life back in the spotlight. Political opponents have targeted him personally over his failed marriages.
In 2022, defending himself, the actor-politician publicly revealed the steep financial settlements from his past divorces. Speaking at a political event in Mangalagiri, he disclosed that he paid Rs 5 crore as legal alimony to resolve his divorce with his first wife, Nandini. He had previously stated that he married her when he didn't know much (about how life works).
The OG actor handed over a major portion of his wealth to his second wife, Renu Desai. He transferred multiple properties into her name to guarantee long-term security for their two children, Akira Nandan and Aadhya. In recent years, PK has been getting closer to Akira once again. On her part, Renu has maintained a distance from Pawan.
In his 2024 election nomination affidavits, Pawan Kalyan declared total liabilities of approximately Rs 64.26 crore. He publicly detailed taking around Rs 17.56 crore in bank loans and nearly Rs 46.70 crore in personal/business advances and loans from film producers (such as TG Vishwa Prasad of People Media Factory and Ram Talluri of Disco Raja and Nela Ticket fame) and private individuals.
