Tamil actor and Tamizhaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) leader Vijay has been courting controversy for the past few weeks thanks to his personal life. His wife, Sangeetha Sornalingam, filed for separation two weeks back after 25 years of marriage, alleging that the actor was having an affair with his colleague. Days later he was seen attending a wedding with actress Trisha Krishnan which added feul to the rumours about their alleged affair.&nbsp;&nbsp;Vijay’s personal life has come under the spotlight amid his foray into politics.

We all respect our leader Vijay, and we all hope that he will make a difference in the party, which will make a difference in Tamil Nadu and provide much more respect and equal space for women. But the statement he made during the Women's Day celebration yesterday… He told everyone that his wife had filed for a divorce. That is his personal matter, so we don't want to discuss it in the media, but this became viral because he said his wife is not worth it. Maybe his wife or his marriage life or anything it is, but the word 'its not worth it' made many people question what he meant. It does not show as a man that he respects his own wife.

She was living with him for more than 25 years. So first of all he should respect his own family. That is more important than he becoming the leader of Tamil Nadu. I always support Vijay. I hope he changes these things. I wish he changes many things. He should solve his personal issues. Above all that, he shouldn’t set a bad trend for the Gen-Z kids. Bringing another actress to a wedding is a bad trend-setting. I don't think this is a positive thing for Vijay because people of Tamil Nadu have a lot of hope.”
