Thalapathy Vijay’s Wife Sangeetha Files for Divorce: Key Details Uncovered
In a surprising development, Sangeetha Sornalingam has filed for divorce from her husband, Tamil cinema star Thalapathy Vijay. This legal action took place in the Chengalpattu Family Court, where she cited allegations of an extramarital affair involving Vijay.
Divorce Filing and Allegations
Sangeetha, who has remained largely out of the limelight, has not yet provided an official statement regarding the divorce. Reports suggest that her petition includes claims of Vijay being involved with another actress. The couple, despite their long-standing marriage, has kept their personal lives private and has not addressed these developments publicly.
Background of Sangeetha Sornalingam
- Sangeetha is of Sri Lankan Tamil origin and was born and raised in the United Kingdom.
- Before her marriage to Vijay in 1999, she held British citizenship.
- She is the daughter of a Tamil industrialist who migrated from Sri Lanka to the UK.
The couple’s relationship began through her admiration as a fan. They first crossed paths after the success of Vijay’s film “Poove Unakkaga.” During a visit to Chennai to celebrate this success, Sangeetha met Vijay at Film City. Following their initial meeting, the families became involved, culminating in a marriage proposal.
The Marriage
Vijay and Sangeetha married on August 25, 1999, in a lavish ceremony. Despite differing religious backgrounds—Vijay being a Christian and Sangeetha a Hindu—they chose to hold a Hindu wedding followed by a reception in Chennai. The couple welcomed their first child in 2000 and their second in 2005. Their children have made brief appearances with Vijay in various films.
Public Appearances and Current Situation
Throughout their marriage, the couple maintained a relatively low profile and rarely appeared in public together. This recent turn of events, however, has brought their personal life into sharp focus. With no formal response from either Vijay or Sangeetha, the situation remains unresolved, sparking widespread speculation among fans and the media.
As Thalapathy Vijay has recently ventured into politics with the establishment of his party, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), the scrutiny on his personal life is likely to increase. Filmogaz.com will continue to follow the developments in this story.
