The divorce case involving Vijay and his wife Sangeetha has been postponed once again, with the Chengalpattu Family Welfare Court deferring the next hearing to June 15. The case came up for hearing on April 20 before Judge Sasikala, but after a brief session, the court decided to adjourn the matter. This marks the second time the proceedings have been delayed, extending the timeline of a case that has already drawn significant public and media attention across Tamil Nadu.
The legal proceedings began in February 2026 when Sangeetha filed a divorce petition, bringing the matter into the public domain. In her petition, she has accused Vijay of infidelity, alleging that he has been involved in an extramarital relationship with an actress since 2021. The petition further claims that this alleged relationship caused emotional distress and mental suffering, describing it as a serious breach of marital trust. It also states that Vijay continued public appearances with the said actress, which reportedly led to embarrassment and emotional strain for the family.
The petition includes additional claims that Vijay gradually withdrew from the marital relationship, resulting in what has been described as constructive desertion. According to the filing, Sangeetha was compelled to live separately within the same household while Vijay continued his professional and public engagements. These allegations are expected to be examined in detail during the upcoming hearings, as the court moves forward with the case.
Vijay and Sangeetha first met in 1996, and their relationship developed over time before they registered their marriage in 1998 in the United Kingdom. The couple later held a traditional wedding ceremony in Chennai on August 25, 1999. They are parents to two children, a son named Jason and a daughter named Dhivya. Over the years, the couple maintained a relatively private personal life despite Vijay’s high-profile career in cinema and politics.
With the next hearing scheduled for June 15, the case continues to be closely followed by both the public and media. Given Vijay’s stature as a prominent actor and political figure, the outcome of the proceedings is expected to have a wide impact on public discourse. As the legal process unfolds, further clarity is likely to emerge regarding the allegations and the future course of the case.
