South Indian actor Bala and singer Amrutha Suresh appeared in Kaloor Family Court on Thursday for a counselling session prior to their divorce.

Amrutha had apparently filed a divorce petition at the Ernakulam, Kaloor family court five months ago. Earlier in June 2015, Bala had confirmed news of their divorce but Amrutha had denied it and had alleged that it was media creation.

"For those who enjoy doing these craps. .. what pleasure do you get from this? Leave us alone. . hope facebook pages are meant for good causes and not for playing with families... shame on you people! ," Amrutha had posted on Facebook one year ago, reacting to their alleged divorce.

But in an interview, Bala has confirmed that they would move for a divorce.

Amrutha and Bala got married in 2010, and have a four-year-old daughter Avantika. Bala has given a petition before the court to visit his daughter who is presently staying with Amrutha.
