Stating that she doesn't want to defame him by raising allegations Devika said, "I have filed the divorce petition. Mukesh didn't reveal his stance on the matter. The reason behind the divorce is personal. I am going through a tough situation after taking the decision. So I request everyone to allow me to overcome this peacefully. I am not interested to defame him. There is no need to connect his personal issues with his life as a politician and actor. I don't need to part away from him angrily." (quotes from Malayalam tabloid Mathrubhumi)
