Thalapathy Vijay-Sankgeetha Divorce Case Turns Into Family Feud? Speculations Rife After Actor's Son Reportedly Unfollows Him

Thalapathy Vijay is facing a personal scandal after his wife, Sankgeetha, filed for a divorce. The couple, who have been married since August 27, 1999, have two children together. Amid the news of their divorce, it is now being speculated that the couple's problems have given rise to a family feud between the actor and TVK chief.

Ever since the news of his divorce, social media users have shown a heightened interest in Thalapathy Vijay's personal life. Amid this, some netizens have observed that the actor's son, Jason Sanjay, is not following him on Instagram. This gave rise to reports of a brewing family feud, with netizens basing it on the fact that Jason has allegedly unfollowed Vijay following the divorce demand from his mother. However, it must be noted that it remains unclear if the father-son duo were following each other on social media ever, in the first place. There is no conclusive evidence to support claims of Jason unfollowing Vijay, especially owing to his divorce.
