Thalapathy Vijay's estranged wife, Sangeetha, is reportedly being wooed by the BJP. The rumour comes months after she filed for divorce and just weeks after Vijay became the CM of Tamil Nadu.
It's likely that the rumour is just hot air. Sangeetha joining a party like the BJP will do nothing to dent Vijay's image. The BJP itself is not quite a popular force in the State. The party's internal troubles have only worsened after the recent debacle.
Moreover, Sangeetha is not an Indian citizen. A Sri Lankan Tamil by heritage, she was born and raised in London. She has spent many years of her life in the UK, even after her marriage. This issue will be raised by opponents to discredit her inclusion.
Recently, after Vijay's rise, political analysts opined that the people of Tamil Nadu don't like the politicization of personal issues. This is why Vijay dared to be seen with Trisha at a wedding reception just weeks before the Assembly elections.
