Pawan Kalyan and his wife, Anna Konidala, recently announced their divorce after 13 years of marriage. In a joint statement, the couple said the decision was mutual and asked for privacy for their family. Do you know, Pawan and Anna once faced the most painful moment when their seven-year-old son, Mark Shankar Pavanovich, was severely injured in a fire accident.
Anna Konidala revealed that she and Pawan Kalyan had almost lost their son
For the unversed, in 2025, Pawan Kalyan’s youngest son, Mark Shankar Pavanovich, was injured during a fire that broke out at his school in Singapore. The tragic incident resulted in the death of a 10-year-old girl and left multiple other children and adults injured. Mark sustained burn injuries on his hands and legs.
In April 2026, Anna Konidala penned an emotional note on Pawan’s elder son Akira Nandan’s birthday. Along with the wishes, she also shared the details of the fire accident, in which she almost lost her son Mark. Her emotional note can be read as:
“It’s one year since the fire where Mark nearly lost his life. Today, we celebrate both our boys. But for Mark, it feels like his 2nd birthday. By God’s grace, Mark survived. His lungs were damaged, but today he is okay. He is here, and that is everything. I still remember sitting by his hospital bed, watching him struggle to breathe. No mother should ever go through that.”
Pawan Kalyan revealed the fire incident would have a long-term effect on his son’s life
On April 8, 2025, a fire broke out at a shophouse on River Valley Road in Singapore. Mark was one of the children and adults injured in the fire. According to reports, Pawan’s son injured his hands and legs in the fire. The reports also revealed that Mark had developed breathing complications as he inhaled smoke. The fire accident claimed 22 lives, including 16 children and six adults.
After a brief hospitalisation, he was discharged and returned to India on April 13, 2025. After the incident, Pawan said Mark was away at summer camp when it happened. He also revealed that his son had to undergo a bronchoscopy, and the smoke inhalation would have some long-term effects. In his words:
“The incident occurred during a summer camp in Singapore, where a fire broke out, injuring several children. One child died (in the incident). My son has burns on his hands and thighs. He has to undergo a bronchoscopy. The smoke inhalation will likely have long-term effects.”
After the incident, Anna Konidela vowed to offer her hair at the Tirumala temple as a mark of gratitude for her son’s safe escape. Several pictures from the head-tonsuring ceremony surfaced online, showing a woman shaving Anna’s head. Later, Anna offered her prayers to the lord and performed an Aarti with the temple’s priests.
