Reports about a possible separation between Vijay and his wife Sangeetha Sornalingam have recently drawn significant attention online.
Amid the ongoing speculation, many fans have been wondering about Sangeetha’s last public appearance, as she has mostly stayed away from the spotlight in recent years.
One of the most recent events where she was seen publicly was the wedding reception of filmmaker S. Shankar’s daughter Aishwarya Shankar in 2024.

Sangeetha’s public appearance has drawn renewed attention amid reports suggesting possible divorce proceedings between her and Vijay.
According to reports, she has filed a petition seeking residential protection and financial support during the legal process.
As a citizen of the United Kingdom, Sangeetha reportedly stated that she does not own a residence in India and requested permission to continue staying in the matrimonial home or be provided with alternative accommodation.
