Pawan Kalyan's Ex-Wife, Renu Will Look For Partner After Daughter Is 18, 'I Have Trauma From Past..'

Finding and believing in love for the second time isn't easy, especially if you have been a public figure and your personal life made headlines. A similar experience was faced by actor-politician Pawan Kalyan's ex-wife, Renu Desai. Despite being an actress and filmmaker, her life has not been smooth. After once being married to a Telugu star, Renu has decided to keep her distance from relationships and even broke her engagement in the past. In a recent interview, Renu explained what keeps her from seeking a companion and how her broken marriage continues to affect her to date. 

Renu Desai reveals she wants to have a partner in life 

Renu Desai, who prefers to avoid the spotlight, made a rare appearance on a podcast with Nikhil Vijayendra Simha. During the conversation, she opened up about her personal life and shared that she also wishes for a boyfriend. For those unaware, Renu and Pawan divorced more than a decade ago, in 2012. However, she has not taken a step in that direction due to her responsibility towards her two kids. In her words:

"Of course, I feel like having a partner too. But it's my sense of responsibility towards my kids that stops me from doing it. If I look at it individually, yes, I should have a boyfriend, I should have a marriage, I should have a life. But when I look at it from the kids' point of view."

Renu continued to reveal that she had got engaged back in 2018 after giving another chance to love in an arranged setup. But, she realised that she wouldn't be able to manage both her relationship and responsibilities as a single mother. Consequently, she wants her children to grow up, particularly her daughter, to turn 18 when she is mature enough to understand the sensitive situation. Renu explained: 

"I'm a single parent. It's different when you marry someone and have kids with them. But when you've had kids with someone, it's a sensitive thing for someone else to enter the equation. I'm waiting for Aadhya to grow up; she's 15 now, maybe when she's 18 and off to college."

Renu Desai opens up about trolling and facing trauma from her past

Pawan Kalyan and Renu Desai were once known as the 'ideal couple' in the Telugu film industry, and fans rejoiced when their admired on-screen couple began off-screen romance. But when Renu decided to part ways with Pawan, she faced harsh criticism from his fans, which continues online to date. Renu mentioned that fans feel she should have been more tolerant in her marriage. However, she can't fight it anymore. She said:

"I still have the trauma of my past. The baggage will never go. It will only go away when I die. The baggage will be there forever, and I've made peace with it. I can't fight it anymore."
