Reigning
queen
of
Bollywood
Rani
Mukherjee
and
hit
filmmaker
Aditya
Chopra
have
always
maintained
that
they
are
just
close
friends
though
there
were
rumours
that
they
were
madly
in
love.
But
if
the
latest
news
is
to
be
believed,
this
'just
close
friends'
are
tying
the
knot
soon.
Aditya
and
wife
Payal
Khanna
have
filled
for
divorce
by
mutual
consent
and
they
are
likely
to
be
legally
separated
by
May.
Sources
said
that
Aditya
and
Rani
are
looking
forward
to
get
married
in
May
once
the
divorce
papers
are
signed.
They
are
said
to
be
planning
a
big
fat
wedding
in
Mumbai.
However,
sources
said
that
the
news
of
their
engagement
is
baseless.
Meanwhile,
the
couple
are
facing
stiff
opposition
from
their
families.
Aditya's
father
Yash
Chopra
and
mother
Pamela
are
not
happy
with
the
new
development,
as
they
get
along
very
well
with
their
daughter-in-law
Payal.
They
have
refused
to
accept
Rani
to
their
fold.
It
is
said
that
Yash
Chopra
has
even
asked
Aditya
to
leave
Rs.1,000
crore
Yash
Raj
empire.
Payal
is
getting
Rs.25
crore
as
alimony
after
the
divorce
besides
a
huge
bungalow
gifted
by
her
in-laws.
The
aura
in
Rani's
family
is
not
better
either.
Her
parents
are
not
happy
with
the
alliance.
This
forced
her
to
move
out
of
her
family
a
couple
of
months
ago.
