Splitsville beckons, confirms Vijay

One of Kollywood's adored couples, Vijay and Amala Paul are heading for a divorce.

There has been plenty of talk recently that a split is on the cards between actress Amala Paul and director Vijay — the popular couple who had a fairytale wedding. When Amala Paul, who was on a career high in 2014, chose to marry director Vijay, it created a huge buzz in tinsel town. Though Amala hit the bull’s eye with Mynaa under Prabhu Solomon’s direction, it was director Vijay’s choice of casting her opposite Chiyaan Vikram in Deiva Thirumagal and Ilayathalapathy Vijay in Thalaivaa that catapulted her to dizzy heights. It was during the making of Deiva Thirumagal that the duo fell in love and went on to date for three years.

After a grand betrothal on June 7th in Kerala, the couple tied the knot on June 12, 2014, at a star-studded function in Chennai. Amala relocated to Chennai and lived with Vijay in a bungalow at the posh Boat Club area. But merely two years later, rumours in the industry claim that Amala and Vijay are headed for a separation. It is learnt that the relationship between the two has been souring over the last few months, and the discord has snowballed to a point that both will opt for a divorce, and separate with mutual consent.

One would have noted that Amala, who used to post many pictures with her hubby dearest on Facebook, has desisted in recent times. Industry sources reveal that the main reason for their misunderstanding was that Amala continued her film career and went on a signing spree after her marriage, despite the disapproval of Vijay’s parents. Close friends also cite lifestyles and compatibility issues as reasons behind their decision.

When DC contacted Vijay, he was unwilling to comment on the issue. However, when prodded, all he said was, “I don’t want to talk anything about it. Our families have gotten involved now, and I will abide by what my parents decide.”
When we tried to contact Amala through a close source (since incoming call facility to her mobile was barred), we were informed that the actress has refused to talk about the issue to media right now.
