Actor and Tamil Vetri Kalagam (TVK) chief Vijay‘s divorce case has taken a new turn as the Chengalpattu Family Welfare Court adjourned the hearing to June 15, 2026.
Court Hearing Postponed
The TVK chief Vijay and his estranged wife Sangeetha have requested permission to attend the divorce hearing via video conference instead of appearing in person. The family court has granted the request and scheduled the next hearing for June 15.
Background of the Divorce Petition
Sangeetha Sornalingam, wife of Tamil actor and politician Vijay, filed for divorce on February 24, 2026, after 27 years of marriage. The petition reportedly cited an extramarital relationship with an actress, but no name was mentioned in the legal documents. She has also filed a separate plea seeking the matrimonial home and permanent alimony.
Political Impact and Fan Reactions
The divorce case is adding to the challenges facing Vijay in his political career. Opponents have been using the personal matter to target the TVK chief politically. While a section of fans has criticised their actor-turned-leader over the issue, many supporters continue to stand by him.
Strong rumors suggest that actress Trisha is involved, though neither Vijay nor Trisha has addressed the speculation. The two were recently seen together at a wedding reception in Chennai, further fueling the rumors.
