It all started with Thalapathy Vijay’s shooting for his film at Film City in Chennai. And in one such, he met a fan, Sangeetha Sornalingam, who came from London to compliment him for the achievement of his last film. The two had a wonderful time conversing with each other, and Sangeetha’s simplicity won Vijay’s heart.
Vijay’s parents were intrigued by Sangeetha when she visited his home. And since then, Vijay grew a keen admiration for Sangeetha.
As Sangeetha Sornalingam was remaining back in Chennai for a couple of more days, Thalapathy Vijay welcomed her again at his house and this time, his parents realized that she was the one for Vijay.
Vijay and Sangeetha got hitched on August 25, 1999. The two chose to get hitched according to Hindu custom as Sangeetha was Hindu and Vijay was Christian.
