Dileep,
the
janapriyanayakan
has
been
in
the
gossip
columns
from
the
past
few
years,
thanks
to
his
divorce
with
Manju
Warrier
and
remarriage
with
Kavya
Madhavan.
In
the
recent
interview
given
to
Manorama
Online,
Dileep
finally
opened
up
about
the
rumours
and
cyber
attack.
The
actor,
who
finally
commented
on
his
divorce,
stated
that
he
and
his
ex-wife
were
leading
a
perfect
married
life
till
2013.
More
than
a
wife,
Manju
Warrier
was
his
best
friend,
with
whom
he
used
to
share
every
little
secret.
The
Other
'Prominent
Personalities'
Their
happy
life
fell
apart
due
to
the
interventions
of
some
'prominent
personalities'.
Dileep
claims
that
he
had
clearly
mentioned
the
actual
reason
for
divorce
and
the
names
of
the
'prominent
personalities'
who
played
a
huge
part
in
it,
in
the
divorce
petition
which
he
submitted to the
family
court.
Priority
Is
Daughter
Meenakshi
According
to
Dileep,
he
opted
for
a
private
trial,
as
he
doens't
wanted
to
anybody
to
suffer
due
to
his
family
issues.
The
actor
also
points
out
that
his
daughter
Meenakshi
is
his
biggest
priority,
and
that
is
why
they
decided
to
not
wash
the
dirty
linen
in
public.
No
Issues
With
Ex-wife
Dileep
states
that
he
has
absolutely
no
issues
with
his
ex-wife,
and
has
no
intentions
to
harm
her
in
any
way.
He
is
also
happy
that
she
is
doing
well
in
her
career.
But,
a
few
people
are
still
instigating
her
against
him.
Remarriage
Dileep
stated
that
he
had
no
plans
to
remarry,
and
was
busy
with
his
career
after
the
divorce.
According
to
the
actor,
it
was
his
daughter's
extreme
loneliness,
which
made
him
think
about
a
remarriage.
Why
Kavya?
When
he
started
thinking
about
a
remarriage,
Dileep
was
very
sure
that
he
cannot
marry
a
stanger.
Since
Kavya
has
always
been
crucified
in
his
name,
the
actor
felt
that
he
should
share
the
rest
of
his
life
with
her.
Oppositions
From
Kavya's
Family
Kavya's
family,
especially
her
mother,
was
initially
against
the
idea
of
marriage,
fearing
that
the
public
might
feel
that
the
rumours
regarding
her
involvement
in
Dileep-Manju
divorce
were
true.
But
Dileep's
family
and
friends
convinced
them
finally.
Dileep
also
stated
that
he
was
never
been
in
a
romantic
relationship
with
Kavya
Madhavan,
even
though
they
know
each
other
from
1998.
The
actor
feels
that
it
is
totally
unfair
to
blame
Kavya
for
the
failure
of
his
first
marriage
with
Manju
Warrier.
When
he
was
asked
about
his
involvement
in
the
attack
against
the
popular
actress,
Dileep
he
was
the
first
one
to
offer
her
a
lead
role.
But,
the
actor
admitted
that
his
friendship
with
the
actress
turned
sour
after
a
particular
incident,
and
he
decided
to
not
work
with
her
anymore.
Dileep
points
out
that
he
supported
her
during
the
tough
times,
but
still
she
didn't
react
when
the
media
dragged
him
into
the
issue.
The
actor
also
severely
thrashed
a
few
journalists
and
media
organisations,
for
circulating
baseless
rumours
against
him.
