Thalapathy Vijay Faces Backlash Over Divorce Remarks Amid Ongoing Controversies

Vijay's Controversial Statements Amid Divorce Proceedings

Thalapathy Vijay is currently surrounded by various controversies. His upcoming film, Jana Nayagan, is facing delays at the censor board, while his estranged spouse, Sangeetha Sornalingam, has initiated divorce proceedings at the Chengalpattu Family Court near Chennai. During a recent event for Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) on Women’s Day, Vijay addressed the situation, dismissing it as 'issues' that are 'not worth it at all.' This comment was perceived by some as a slight towards Sangeetha. Ranjana Nachiyar, the leader of TVK’s Women Wing, responded to Vijay's remarks, expressing her disagreement.

In an interview, Rachana Nachiyar criticized Vijay for his remarks, which she felt were indirectly aimed at Sangeetha. She expressed hope that Vijay would promote change in Tamil Nadu and show respect towards women. Nachiyar disagreed with Vijay's notion that his marriage or wife is 'not worth it,' emphasizing the need for a shift in how women are perceived.

Rachana further stated that it is crucial for Vijay to prioritize his family over political ambitions. She expressed disbelief that women would support such behavior and reiterated her support for Sangeetha, urging Vijay to honor the woman who has been with him for over two decades and is the mother of his children. 'Respecting his family is more significant than aspiring to lead Tamil Nadu,' she asserted.

Rachana also commented on a viral video showing Vijay attending a family wedding alongside actress Trisha. In her divorce filing, Sangeetha accused Vijay of having an extramarital affair with an actress.

The divorce case remains active in court, and the couple's son, Jason Sanjay, has unfollowed Vijay on social media, intensifying the family discord.
