Thalapathy Vijay has been married to Sangeetha Sornalingam for 24 years. Their love story began after his first blockbuster film, Poove Unakkaga.
The film’s success made him a sensation among Tamilians worldwide, including Sangeetha, the daughter of a Sri Lankan Tamil industrialist.
Sangeetha met Vijay during a film shoot and soon Vijay’s parents proposed marriage. On August 25, 1999, Vijay and Sangeetha married and had two children, Jason Sanjay and Divya Sasha.
Despite their enduring marriage, rumors of a divorce have occasionally surfaced.
Recently, Trisha Krishnan, a long-time friend and co-star of Vijay, has been at the center of these rumors. Trisha and Vijay have worked together in several blockbuster movies including their last movie Leo and share a close friendship.
When Trisha shared a photo with Vijay on his 50th birthday with the caption, “The calm to a storm; the storm to a calm. To many more milestones ahead,” accompanied by birthday emojis and Billie Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather” playing in the background.
This post sparked rumors of a relationship, with one user commenting, “Don’t know why, but I feel incredibly happy for Vijay and Trisha. Whether they are together as a couple or as friends, only a few are gifted with a second life. Let them be happy doing what they want to do.”
Another user criticized, “Publicizing a relationship before announcing a divorce makes it an extra-marital affair. It’s morally wrong to have an affair, no matter where you’re from.”
Soon some candid pics of Trisha and Vijay spending some quality time popped up on social media.
The truth behind the rumors remains unclear, but it’s evident that Vijay and Sangeetha’s marriage has endured for over two decades despite occasional public speculations about their divorce.
