STR in a statement to the media today declared that he has severed his relationship with Hansika. "I had gone through enough in this relationship , and after much of thoughts invested into this I hereby declare that I am single now, and i have nothing to do whatsoever with Hansika, and it is all a story of the past. I don't regret the past nor am I in a mood to discuss over the facts which had forced me to this discussion. This announcement is also made only to give clarity to my friends, associates, and my fans over my status. As of now, I am concentrating on my career... and needless to say I am happy and relieved too!!!"
This is not the first time he has had a heart-wrenching break-up. At the very early stage of his career, he dated Nayantara and later the couple parted ways.
