In a heartfelt note, the actress revealed that she and Karthik have been together for over 15 years—a journey that began long before she stepped into the film industry.

“He’s been my anchor through every high and low,” Abhinaya shared in a candid moment during her engagement. “From the time I started my acting career to now, he has been by my side, encouraging me, protecting me, and believing in me even when I doubted myself. Karthik is my biggest strength.”
