Vijay-Sangeetha Divorce: Will 'Thalapathy' Lose 50% Wealth? Indian Law Explained

• Actor and TVK leader Vijay's wife, Sangeetha, has filed for divorce, seeking alimony based on his income and social standing.
• Social media debates whether Vijay could lose 50% of his estimated Rs 600 crore wealth, similar to high-profile international divorces.
• Indian law does not mandate a 50% property split; it does not recognize 'community property' like some Western jurisdictions.
• Courts prioritize fairness, considering factors like earnings, household contributions, children's needs, and standard of living.
• Section 25 of the Hindu Marriage Act allows 'reasonable and appropriate' alimony, often up to 25% of monthly income, but not a fixed 50% of total assets.
