The divorce case between actor-politician Vijay and his wife Sangeetha Sornalingam has been postponed to June 15 by the Chengalpattu family court, with both ordered to appear. The case, initiated by Sangeetha's petition alleging Vijay's extramarital affair and financial restrictions, also involves discussions on child custody and settlement. Initial rumors of a Rs 250 crore settlement have been revised to around Rs 35 crore, though neither party has confirmed the amount.

Political bias across 6 sources
● Left 3%● Center 95%● Right 2%
The articles present perspectives from both the actor-politician Vijay and his estranged wife Sangeetha, including legal allegations and settlement discussions. Coverage includes political context due to Vijay's election involvement, but maintains focus on the personal and legal aspects without favoring either side. Sources highlight claims from Sangeetha's petition and reports on settlement rumors, reflecting a mix of legal, personal, and political angles.
Sentiment — Neutral (38/100)
The overall tone across the articles is neutral to slightly serious, focusing on legal proceedings and personal allegations without sensationalizing. While some reports mention allegations and rumors, the language remains factual and restrained. The postponement and ongoing nature of the case contribute to a cautious, informative sentiment rather than emotional or judgmental coverage.
