Dad was neutral towards marriage, conversion
Dad was neutral towards marriage, conversion.Southern composer Yuvan Shankar Raja says his father Ilaiyaraaja was never against his decision to convert to Islam, and subsequently marry a Muslim.
Southern composer Yuvan Shankar Raja says his father Ilaiyaraaja was never against his decision to convert to Islam, and subsequently marry a Muslim. He says the music maestro was neutral towards his conversion and marriage.In 2014, Yuvan converted to Islam for unexplained reasons and married Jaffrunnisha earlier this year.
“My father was neutral towards my decision to convert to Islam and my third marriage. He couldn’t attend my wedding owing to the short notice and his work commitments. We were welcomed with open arms when I returned home after marriage,” Yuvan said.
He still prefers to be called Yuvan, and hasn’t changed his name.“Yuvan is my identity. I don’t want to change that. Nothing about me changed except that I’ve embraced Islam,” he said.
