, a bassist, has worked with Music maestro . She finally broke silence on rumours of a link-up with the legendary musician in a video she shared on social media. She firmly denied the baseless claims in a video. She also stated that AR Rahman is like a father figure to her. She expressed her disappointment with the false narratives that are spreading like wildfire.

For the uninitiated, AR Rahman and his wife Saira Banu announced their separation after 29 years of marriage. Their announcement went viral on social media and left everyone shocked. During the same time, Mohini Dey announced her divorce from husband Mark Hartsuch. This led to speculation about her relationship with Rahman, and rumours started floating. Mohini took to her Instagram and shared a video in which she clarified that her connection with Rahman is one of mutual respect and admiration.

She captioned the post, ‘It is utterly unbelievable to see the amount of misinformation and baseless assumptions/claims against me & @arrahman
It feels criminal that the media has vulgarised the two events
I honour my times as a kid working with @arrahman throughout my 8.5 years of working with him for his movies, tours, etc.
Its disheartening to see that people have no respect, sympathy or empathy towards emotional matters like this.
It saddens me to see people’s state of mind.
@arrahman is a legend and he is just like father to me!
I have many role models & father figures in life that have played vital roles in my career and upbringing.
To name a few- My dad who taught me everything music (who I lost a year ago) and then @ranjitbarot1 who introduced me to the industry, @louizbanksofficial who shaped me & @arrahman who gave me the freedom to shine in his shows and his musical arrangements during recording sessions.
I cherish and treasure that and will always do!
Media/Paps do not understand the affect it has on people’s minds and lives. Be sensitive.
I dont owe anyone any explainations but also, I dont want this to brew and interupt my day so, Kindly stop with the false claims & Respect our privacy.
Love,
Mo’.

Mohini also called out trollers for making baseless assumptions and urged them to stop spreading false narratives. She described Rahman as her role model and called him a father figure. She urged people to be considerate and respect their privacy.
