Sangeetha appeared before the court through video-conferencing when her plea was taken up, and she submitted the reasons for not pursuing her case
On Friday, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay's wife Sangeetha withdrew her divorce petition filed before a family court at Chengelpattu. The court proceedings were conducted through video-conferencing, and Sangeetha submitted reasons for not pursuing the case. The court subsequently dismissed her petition as withdrawn. The divorce case was initially adjourned on June 15, with the next hearing scheduled for August 7.
In February 2026, Sangeetha filed the divorce petition under the Special Marriage Act, 1954, alleging extramarital affairs and emotional distress caused by Vijay. The couple, who married in 1999, has two children and had been together since the late 1990s when Sangeetha met Vijay, who had already become famous with the film Poove Unakkaga.
