Read Section 10 and Section 13 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955

JS is a reversible process but Divorce is an irreversible process...if the Divorce is granted and thereafter the couple decides for reunion then they will have to marry again.

THE MATRIMONIAL LAW PROVIDES REMEDY. IF YOU UNSATISFIED YOU CAN AGAIN REVERSE THE PROCESS BY YOUR ACT.

Mr. Kiran has advised you correctly.
In a case of judicial separation, the husband-wife relationship does not come to an end. As such, the relationship can be revived at any point of time.

In the case of divorce, the husband-wife relationship gets snapped. If the parties want to once again become husband and wife, then they have to enter into marriage again.
