Kamal Haasan was in a live-in relationship with that actress, upon learning this another actress jumped off balcony

Actor Kamal Haasan is often hailed as a marvel of Indian cinema. The actor, who has acted in numerous films, including several in Malayalam, was once a shining star in the industry. However, despite his cinematic brilliance, Kamal has faced significant criticism for his personal life choices. Much of the criticism stemmed from his relationships with several women from the film industry.

Most of Kamal's marriages ended in failure. One of the most well-known chapters of his life was his relationship with actress Srividya. It was widely believed that their bond would culminate in marriage, but the union was thwarted due to objections from Srividya's mother. Following this, Kamal married dancer Vani Ganapathy in 1978. However, the couple divorced ten years later, in 1988.

The separation from Vani Ganapathy was reportedly due to Kamal's affair with actress Sarika. He married Sarika in the same year. The couple had two daughters, Shruti Haasan and Akshara Haasan. Kamal married Sarika after the birth of their daughter, Shruti. However, his relationship with Gautami led to the breakdown of this marriage. Insiders claim Sarika was driven to desperation and even attempted to take her own life by jumping from a balcony after discovering Kamal's relationship with Gautami.

Kamal and Gautami chose to live together in a live-in relationship, moving away from the conventional idea of marriage. Sarika, upon learning this, reportedly attempted suicide by jumping from the balcony but survived the incident with injuries. This eventually led to the dissolution of Kamal and Sarika's marriage. However, Kamal later ended his relationship with Gautami as well. Following their breakup, Gautami made serious allegations against the actor.
