Vijay And Sangeetha Divorce Petition To Be Heard Today In Chennai Court
Vijay divorce petition hearing scheduled today amid allegations and speculation.
A divorce petition involving Tamil actor Vijay and his wife Sangeetha Sornalingam is scheduled for hearing on Monday at the Chengalpattu Family Welfare Court, drawing widespread public and media attention amid ongoing speculation about the couple’s marital relationship.
Reports of strain in the couple’s relationship have circulated on social media for several years, with observers noting Sangeetha’s absence from Vijay’s public appearances and film-related events. While earlier speculation suggested she had been residing abroad for their children’s education, the issue has now formally entered legal proceedings.
According to court filings, Sangeetha Sornalingam submitted the divorce petition on February 24 before the Chengalpattu court. The case was initially listed for hearing on February 26 but was later adjourned to April 20, when it is now scheduled to be taken up. The petition is expected to be heard under family welfare court procedures.

Sources familiar with the matter indicate that the petition includes allegations of marital discord and emotional distress. It has been reported that Sangeetha has claimed a breakdown of trust in the marriage, including allegations of Vijay’s involvement in an extramarital relationship with a fellow actress, which she says contributed to ongoing mental stress.
The petition further states that although the couple has reportedly been living under the same roof since 2021, they have been functioning separately without a marital relationship. It also mentions that she may reveal further details in court if subjected to pressure or coercion, adding to the sensitivity of the proceedings.
The court had previously directed Vijay to appear for the hearing, though it remains unclear whether he will be present in person or represented by legal counsel. Legal sources suggest that discussions between both parties’ representatives have recently progressed, raising the possibility of an amicable settlement through mutual consent.
The case has generated significant public interest due to Vijay’s prominence in Tamil cinema and his large fan following. As proceedings begin, attention is focused on whether the matter will proceed as a contested divorce or move toward a negotiated settlement in court.
