After nearly 16 years of marriage, Manju and Dileep filed a joint divorce petition in July 2014, with the divorce being officially granted in January 2015. At the time, reports stated that the couple had been living separately due to differences of opinion. Dileep later said that their separation was the result of several issues and that he had submitted details to the family court, but he chose not to disclose them publicly, saying he wanted to protect their daughter's future. He also denied that actress Kavya Madhavan was responsible for the breakdown of his marriage to Manju, calling the matter a "closed chapter."
