Meanwhile, his ex-wife has also shared a social media post, which is being seen as a response to his allegations.
Ravi Mohan’s ex-wife Aati gave a befitting reply
Ravi Mohan’s ex-wife Aarti Ravi wrote on Instagram with a heart emoji, “You never wake a sleeping lion. God help if she’s a mamma lion. My dignified silence should never be mistaken for weakness or taken undue advantage of.” She further added, “If needed, to protect my children and my dignity, I will step out of my comfort zone and face the world with the truth. Because truth always prevails.” Aarti’s post received support from actor-politician Khushbu Sundar, who commented, “Never mess with a mother. And you are a lioness with her cubs. More power to you my baby.”
Ravi Mohan’s statement
Ravi Mohan held a press conference after stepping away from his office, where he appeared quite emotional. Explaining his decision to pause acting until his divorce is finalized, he said, “I have made this decision because I cannot act under these circumstances. I cannot tolerate the unnecessary insults I am facing. I will not be patient any longer. Those who were trying to provoke me can do so now. This is my office, and those who wanted to use me as a punching bag can come here. I will kick them like Karate Babu.”
He added that he would return to films only after his personal life stabilizes and the online negativity subsides. “Enough is enough. I refrained from opening up all these days. Now the time has come. People think Ravi Mohan aka Jayam Ravi is a soft person. I have been that way, but not anymore,” he said while speaking to the media. Quoting a Tamil proverb, he added, “Saadhu miranda kaadu kollathu,” meaning it is difficult to bear the anger of a soft-natured person. He further said, “There are people trying to test my patience. My message to them is this: this is my office. Face me if you can.”
