Amala Paul had a rough year with her very public divorce with director AL. Vijay. The separation of the celeb couple shook the industry and fans. Of late, the actress has been on a signing spree and reportedly, Amala Paul is set to join the multi-starrer Malayalam movie Achayans.
Talking about life after divorce to a daily, Amala says,''I feel like a new lifetime has begun. I was 18 when I made my debut, at 23 I got married and at 24 we parted ways. I grew up with the industry and missed out on a lot of stuff that girls normally do. I had nobody to turn to for advice. So I learned from my mistakes. Post separation I had my share of crying, but at the end of the day it was a learning experience.''
Admitting that Vijay will always have a special place in her life, Amala said, ''I still love Vijay and will always do. He will always be a very special person, but at times letting go is also love. It was the most painful and difficult decision in my life because nobody gets married to separate later. Life is unpredictable.''
''I got married at the wrong age. Early 20s is not an ideal time to exchange vows. I have no complaints or regrets, so I didn’t let it break me. If you ask me whether it was a wrong decision to marry Vijay, my answer is no'', said Amala Paul.
