The withdrawal marks a definitive conclusion to proceedings that previously generated significant political friction during the recent Tamil Nadu Assembly election campaign. In her original filing, Sangeetha alleged that Vijay had engaged in an adulterous relationship with an actress, claiming the affair caused her severe emotional distress and led to what she described as constructive desertion starting in 2021.
Legal tensions surrounding the couple recently intersected with broader scrutiny of the Chief Minister’s financial disclosures. A separate petition filed in the Madras High Court by voter Venkatesh had challenged the accuracy of Vijay’s election affidavit, specifically questioning a declared loan of 12.60 crore rupees to Sangeetha and a 20 crore rupee contribution to a private educational trust. The High Court dismissed that challenge in late April, citing prior rulings on the matter. Married since 1999, the couple shares two children, Jason and Dhivya, ending a period of public scrutiny that began shortly before the state polls.
