Andhra Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan and his third wife, Anna Konidala, have announced their separation after 13 years of marriage. Pawan first met Anna, a Russian citizen whose maiden name is Anna Lezhneva, while shooting for Teen Maar in 2011.
In a joint statement shared on Monday night, the couple said they had made the decision with “mutual understanding and respect.” They added that while their marriage had come to an end, they would continue to remain “good friends and devoted parents” to their children.
Pawan and Anna have two children together, Polena Anjana Pawanova and Mark Shankar Pawanovich.
