Thalapathy Vijay is currently facing divorce proceedings from his wife Sangeetha Sornalingam. The couple, who have been married for nearly 27 years, are reportedly parting ways after their relationship deteriorated.
According to reports, Sangeetha filed for divorce, alleging that the actor was involved in an extramarital affair with an actress. She reportedly learned about the relationship in 2021, after which the actor initially agreed to end it.
However, the actor’s wife later claimed that he abandoned her and their children, causing them mental and emotional distress.
According to recent speculation, the superstar may settle the divorce by paying an alimony of Rs 250 crore. However, no official confirmation has been made regarding the matter.
Additionally, there have already been rumors that Vijay and Trisha Krishnan have been seeing each other for some time, with the latest video further fueling the speculation.
