Vijay and Sankgeetha's divorce proceedings

Vijay's wife Sankgeetha has sought a divorce on the grounds of adultery amid the actor's link-up with Trisha Krishnan. On February 27, she filed a petition for divorce against him in the  Chengalpattu family court in Chennai. As per the divorce petition, Sangeetha has accused Vijay of infidelity, alleging that he has had an "adulterous relationship" with an actress. "In April 2021, the Petitioner (Sankgeetha) discovered that the Respondent (Vijay) was involved in an adulterous relationship with an actress. This caused her deep emotional pain and mental suffering, amounting to betrayal and violation of marital trust," the petition stated, adding that the actor "continued open association with the actress," causing Sangeetha emotional agony and embarrassment to the children.

Vijay and Sangeetha met for the first time in 1996. The couple registered their marriage in 1998 in the UK, following which they also held a ceremonial marriage as per Hindu traditions in Chennai on August 25, 1999.
