Popular actor Mouni Roy left her fans and the industry shocked after announcing her separation from husband Suraj Nambiar after four years of marriage. While their divorce was confirmed by both Suraj and Mouni, citing mutual consent and irreparable differences despite efforts to save the marriage, Mouni's close friendship with actor Disha Patani soon became the centre of social media speculation.
Disha was dragged into the controversy, with several trolls claiming that her closeness with Mouni could have been one of the reasons behind the separation. However, both actresses appeared unfazed by the noise and subtly shut down the rumours, making it clear that female friendships should not be judged or linked to assumptions about sexual preferences.
Amid the ongoing negativity, Mouni made her first appearance at the 79th Cannes Film Festival and turned heads with a bold fashion statement on the global stage. Sharing a series of glamorous photos from Cannes, Mouni captioned the post, "Cannes and chaos! Bonjour.."
Ignoring the trolls and controversy surrounding the divorce, Disha publicly showed support for her best friend by dropping a sweet comment under the post. "Let's go, girl," she wrote.
Earlier, Mouni and Suraj had unfollowed each other on Instagram, but the two are now back to following one another, hinting that there is no bad blood between them despite the separation.
Meanwhile, Suraj issued another statement on Instagram on Monday, clarifying that there was no third party involved in their split. He also requested people not to drag innocent friends into the matter after Disha was unnecessarily targeted online.

Disha's public support comes at a time when netizens continue dragging and criticising Mouni and Suraj's split.
Disha Patani is rumoured to be dating Punjabi singer Talwiinder.
