Overview
- The Chengalpattu family court, which took up the case Monday, postponed the hearing to June 15 and directed Vijay and Sangeetha to attend in person.
- Neither Vijay nor Sangeetha appeared at the April 20 session before Judge Sasikala, prompting the order for their presence at the next date.
- Lawyers told the court the couple had reached an understanding, with talks reported on alimony, division of assets, and protections for their two children.
- Sangeetha’s February filing alleges Vijay maintained an adulterous relationship with a female actor from 2021 and seeks interim rights to remain in the Neelankarai marital home.
- The proceedings have intense public interest because Vijay is a major film star entering politics, and a mutual-consent path could shorten the family-court process if both sides formalize it.
