The popular South Indian actress Meera Vasudevan is in the news again, and this time it is to confirm her third divorce. Known for powerful performances in Malayalam, Tamil, and Hindi cinema, the personal life of Meera has often been under public scrutiny. Her recent announcement to separate from cinematographer Vipin Puthiyankam has raised interests and emotional reactions among fans all over the country.

Let’s delve into the timeline of her relationship, the reasons for the split, and how Meera is embracing this new chapter in her life.

Who is Meera Vasudevan?

Meera Vasudevan is a known name in Indian regional cinema. She started her journey in Malayalam with the critically acclaimed Thanmathra, opposite Mohanlal, and has since been doing some successful projects in several languages. Apart from her film career, she has also been a known face on television, especially in the Malayalam serial Kudumbavilakku where she met her now ex-husband Vipin.

Her acting accolades consist of the Kerala State Television Award for Best Actress, and she expresses herself with versatility and emotional depth on screen.

A Brief Timeline of Her Marriages

Meera’s personal life has been just as eventful as her professional journey. She first married a Mumbai-based businessman, Vishal Agarwal. After their separation, she married actor John Kokken, and the couple has a son together. That marriage, too, ended in divorce.

In May 2024, Meera married cinematographer Vipin Puthiyankam at a private ceremony in Coimbatore. The two had met on the sets of Kudumbavilakku and instantly became close. The wedding was rejoiced by fans and colleagues alike, hoping this would be her lasting relationship.

The Announcement of Her Third Divorce

On November 17, 2025, Meera took to her Instagram and confirmed that she and Vipin had parted ways. She wrote, “I, Actress Meera Vasudevan, officially declare that I am now single since August 2025.” Meera termed this phase of her life as “peaceful”, saying she is in a space of healing and self-discovery.

The announcement came after months of speculation that the marriage was in trouble, as Meera had been removing photos of her wedding from her social media accounts, raising suspicions among her followers of a rift. Her confirmation brought clarity and drew support from followers, who praised her honesty and strength.

Why the Marriage Ended

While Meera herself has not spoken publicly about the reasons for the separation, sources close to them say differences began to surface within months of the marriage. The pressures of living in the public eye could have contributed to the couple’s decision, coupled with personal incompatibilities. Notably, Meera has never hidden her battles. She has spoken about how failed relationships exact their toll emotionally and how important self-respect and mental peace are. Her walking away from such a relationship, which no longer served her well, was a reflection of choosing peace over pretense.

Embracing a New Chapter

It would appear that Meera is in a place of both acceptance and renewal from the emotional burden of a third divorce. Her posts recently reflect a woman reclaiming her story, focusing on personal growth. She has even referred to this phase as “the most peaceful” of her life-a movement into more inner healing, placing a focus on herself. Professionally, Meera continues to do well. She remains active in the television industry and reportedly is in consideration for new projects in film. This resilience allows her to turn situations around, making her a role model for many women who have faced similar challenges.
