According to court filings, Sangeetha alleged that Vijay subjected her to mental distress and further accused him of maintaining an extramarital relationship with a female actor. The petition reportedly states that she became aware of the alleged relationship in 2021 and confronted him about it.
She claimed that Vijay repeatedly assured her that the association would end, but alleged that the relationship continued. Sangeetha also maintained that the situation negatively affected their children, Jason Sanjay and Divya Sasha.
Multiple delays
The legal proceedings have witnessed multiple adjournments. According to reports, the case was initially scheduled for a hearing earlier this year, but both parties failed to appear, prompting the court to grant additional time.
About CM Vijay and Sangeetha
The popular star Vijay married Sangeetha, a Sri Lankan Tamil by origin and a resident of the UK, in 1998. Over the years, they built a life together and are parents to two children - son Jason Sanjay and daughter Divya Saasha. While Vijay earned accolades and popularity for his films, Sangeetha remained in the background and maintained a low profile- away from the public eye.
CM Vijay's final film, Jana Nayagan, directed by H. Vinoth, continues to face a delay due to pending certification. The film also stars Bobby Deol and Pooja Hegde in the key roles.
