Pawan Kalyan, popularly known as Power Star in Telugu cinema, has finally fulfilled his dream of entering the Andhra Pradesh Assembly. After two unsuccessful election efforts, Kalyan and his Jan Sena Party won a significant victory in the 2024 elections and now they are taking charge as the actor as well as the deputy CM of the state. But here we are discussing Pawan Kalyan’s personal or say love life. The actor has done three marriages in real life and one of his wife is foreign. He is also the father of 4 children.

First marriage to Nandini: Before making her film debut in 1996, Pawan Kalyan studied at the Satyanand Acting Institute in Visakhapatnam, where she met Nandini. She married in a traditional ceremony in Hyderabad, a year after her debut. However, their marriage soon soured, when Kalyan accused Nandini of leaving her and her house. However, Nandini later denied the allegation, so the wrangling intensified that the couple separated in 2001.

Relationship with co-star
After divorce from Nandani, Pawan Kalyan started living with his co-star Renu Desai. In 2007, Nandini registered a second marriage case against Kalyan, alleging that she had married Renu Desai without divorce. Kalyan’s legal team argued that he and Renu were in a live-in relationship, not married. The court later dismissed the case due to lack of evidence. Subsequently, Kalyan applied for divorce, and in August 2008, he finalized his divorce with Kalyan giving 5 crore alimony to Nandini. After divorce, Nandini allegedly moved to America and has very little information about her current life.

Second marriage with Renu Desai
Pawan Kalyan and Renu Desai stayed in a live-in relationship for eight years before getting married in 2009. In 2010, he had a daughter, Adya. However, in 2012, their marriage formally ended in divorce. Despite the separation, Renu mentioned maintaining a friendship relationship with Kalyan. Third marriage to Anna Lejaneva: In 2013, Kalyan married his third wife, former Russian model Anna Legeneva, whom he met while working in the film ‘Teen Mar’. The couple have two children: Mark Shankar Pawanovich, who was born in 2017, and Polena is her daughter from Anjana Pawanova, Anna’s previous wedding.

On Wednesday, Pawan Kalyan was sworn in as the Deputy Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, which is a new chapter in his political career. His successful election dialect has not only thrilled his fans, but has also made his personal life into the headlines. In such a situation, his visit to professional success and his visit to personal turmoil shows his flexibility towards his new role in politics. Pawan Kalyan’s life, on-screen and off-screen have been full of achievements and challenges in both ways. With the support of his family, including his wife Anna Legneva, the story of Kalyan is the story of firmness and development, which reflects his versatile personality as an actor, politician and family person.
