Trisha’s speech on Thalapathy Vijay at SIIMA Awards 2025 amid divorce with Sangeetha goes viral

Mumbai: Thalapathy Vijay’s divorce from wife Sangeetha is the hot topic on and off social media. As per the divorce filing, the actor’s wife alleged that the actor has been in an adulterous relationship with an actress. Though the divorce plea did not mention the name of the actress, many speculated that it might be actress Trisha Krishnan.

With rumours pairing Trisha with Vijay, many dissected their relationship over the years. Old public pictures and videos of the actors surfaced online. A particular moment at the SIIMA Awards in Dubai last year, where Trisha celebrated 25 years in cinema, is going viral. During her speech, Trisha mentioned Vijay. She said, “I would like to tell him good luck on his new journey. Whatever he dreams, may they come true because he deserves it.”

Vijay and Trisha movies

The two actors were once one of the most celebrated pairs on-screen. Ghilli (2004), Thirupaachi (2005), Aathi (2006) and Kuruvi (2008) are some of their popular movies. While the pair developed a loyal fan base, rumours of them having something more than just on-screen chemistry began to spread. As per industry gossip, the two became close after their movie Ghilli.

As whispers in the industry grew louder, Vijay was instructed by his family to stay away from Trisha. Meanwhile, the actors continued to state they were just friends. However, they took a break from acting in films together. But 15 years later, Trisha and Vijay joined hands for the movie Leo.

While fans were thrilled to see them together, it also brought back old rumours.

Actor Vijay has been married to Sangeetha Sornalingam since 1999. She was an ardent fan of the actor. The two went on to have two children, Jason Sanjay and Divya Saasha. Vijay and his family have largely been private. Following the divorce filing, the actor’s son unfollowed him on Instagram.
