Actor Ramya Krishnan clarified that she and director Krishna Vamsi (Pasupuleti Venkata Bangarraju) are still husband and wife. In a recent interview, she dismissed the rumors regarding their divorce.

The couple resides in different cities, with Ramya Krishnan living in Chennai and Krishna Vamsi in Hyderabad. She stated that professional commitments and their son Ritwik's education are the reasons behind this.

She explained how this arrangement began. Travelling between Chennai and Hyderabad every 15 days for TV serial production led to her son frequently falling ill. Additionally, disruptions due to the Telangana movement, bandhs, and school holidays in Hyderabad prompted them to decide on educating their son in Chennai.

From the moment he wakes up in the morning until he goes to sleep at night, he has no focus other than cinema. He does not interfere in my work, and I do not interfere in his. Both of us are happy living like this. — Ramya Krishnan

Ramya Krishnan revealed that before marriage, Krishna Vamsi had proposed a live-in relationship instead of marriage. She also mentioned that during the editing of 'Sri Anjaneyam', when she honestly told him that she did not like the second half of the film, he stopped narrating movie stories to her from then on.

Speaking about her career, Ramya Krishnan said she initially hesitated to play the antagonist role Neelambari in the movie 'Padayappa' ('Narasimha' in Telugu), which starred Rajinikanth alongside Soundarya.

There is also an interesting story behind her role as Sivagami in 'Baahubali'. When producer Shobu Yarlagadda asked for 40 days of call sheets, she was busy with TV production work and declined, hanging up the phone. Her father scolded her for rejecting Rajamouli's massive project without even hearing the story. After Shobu Yarlagadda contacted her again, she listened to the story narrated by Rajamouli and agreed to play the character of Sivagami.
