Bureau (27 Febuary 2026): While wedding rumours involving South Indian star Vijay Deverakonda and actress Rashmika Mandanna continue to dominate headlines, another major development has drawn attention — reports of a possible separation between actor-turned-politician Thalapathy Vijay and his wife Sangeetha Sornalingam.
According to reports, Vijay’s marital life has reportedly hit a rough patch, with Sangeetha filing for divorce after 27 years of marriage at a court in Chengalpattu, Tamil Nadu. The development has sparked widespread discussion across both the film and political spheres in South India.
Sangeetha, known for her social work, has sought legal separation while also claiming rights over the residence where the couple has lived since their marriage. Vijay has not yet issued any public statement regarding the divorce petition.
The couple has two children — son Jason Sanjay, aged about 25, and daughter Divya Sasha, aged around 20. Despite the family reportedly living together, the divorce filing has surprised fans and followers.
Reports suggest that Sangeetha, who was raised in the United Kingdom, moved to Chennai in 1990 before their marriage. A devoted fan of Vijay, her meeting with the actor eventually led to their relationship and marriage. Their union was widely appreciated, transcending religious differences, as Vijay is Christian while Sangeetha is Hindu.
The reported marital dispute comes at a crucial time for Vijay, who is preparing for the release of his upcoming film “Jana Nayagan” and is simultaneously focusing on his political ambitions through his party Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) ahead of the Tamil Nadu Assembly elections.
Industry observers believe the timing of the divorce petition could add to the challenges Vijay faces as he balances cinema and politics. Meanwhile, fans continue to await an official clarification from the actor regarding the reports.
