The divorce case involving Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and actor Vijay and his wife, Sangeetha Sornalingam, had a quiet day in court on Monday, June 15. The Chengalpattu Mahila Court adjourned the proceedings and scheduled the next hearing for August 7.
According to India Today report, the hearing began around 10:30 AM, with both Vijay and Sangeetha attending the session as directed by the court. Despite their presence, the session concluded without any major developments, decisions, or resolutions reached between the two sides.
Sangeetha filed the divorce petition to officially end their 27-year marriage, citing allegations of adultery and cruelty under the Special Marriage Act of 1954.
The couple originally legally registered their marriage in the UK in 1998, followed by a traditional wedding in Chennai in 1999.
Sangeetha claims she discovered in April 2021 that Vijay was in a relationship with an unnamed actress, who is widely linked with his co-star, Trisha Krishnan.
The petition further details a severe breakdown of the marriage, citing emotional withdrawal and verbal disdain from Vijay, as well as financial misconduct.
The couple's final meeting took place on November 9, 2025, but it yielded no results, and Sangeetha states that the marriage has now broken down beyond repair and exists only on paper.
