Can serious allegations against a husband make headlines, only for the divorce case to be withdrawn before the court decides them? Sangeetha Vijay has withdrawn her divorce plea against C Joseph CM Vijay after alleging an extra-marital relationship, cruelty and desertion.

CHENGALPATTU: Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and actor C Joseph Vijay’s wife Sangeetha Vijay has withdrawn her divorce petition filed before the Chengalpattu court.

Sangeetha had approached the District Court at Chengalpattu earlier in 2026 under the Special Marriage Act, 1954, seeking dissolution of the marriage along with financial and residential reliefs.

In the petition, she had alleged that Vijay was involved in an “extra-marital relationship” with an actress.

Other reports concerning the original petition stated that Sangeetha accused Vijay of “persistent mental cruelty, neglect and desertion” and claimed that their marriage had “irretrievably broken down”.

These were allegations made by Sangeetha in her matrimonial proceedings. They were not judicial findings against Vijay.

Sangeetha and Vijay had registered their marriage in the United Kingdom on July 10, 1998. They later solemnised their marriage in Chennai on August 25, 1999, according to Hindu rites and customs.
