Priyanka and Vijay’s Tamil film was Thamizhan. The film was released in the year 2002. Vijay has also worked with superstar actress Sridevi.
Vijay has also won several awards because of his acting. There is no dearth of actresses who like Vijay, but his heart was meant for only one particular girl.
Vijay’s wife’s name is Sangeetha Sornalingam. The couple has two children together. The love story of Vijay and Sangeeta is very interesting. Although Vijay has romanced with many actresses on screen, but in real life he married his fan. Actually Sangeeta lived in the UK and was a big fan of Vijay.
It was during one of his shooting breaks that Vijay was greeted by a pretty lady who introduced herself as Sangeetha Sornalingam. Vijay greeted her pleasantly and the two chatted for a while.
Later, both of them started talking and began to like each other. One day Vijay’s father called Sangeeta to his house and offered her a marriage proposal. Sangeeta agreed and 25 August 1999, the two got married.
It is worth mentioning that Vijay is a Christian and Sangeeta a Hindu but religion does not come between their love. Vijay decided that he would marry Sangeeta as per Hindu customs.
