As per the latest update from news agency ANI, Court documents show that Sangeeta initiated legal proceedings in early 2026 before the District Court in Chengalpattu, seeking dissolution of their marriage and interim residential rights. The case has been registered as an Interlocutory Application (I.A.) in the S.M.O.P. proceedings of 2026. The petition has been filed under Sections 27(1)(a), (b), and (d) of the Special Marriage Act, 1954, seeking legal dissolution of the couple's marriage that was solemnised on August 25, 1999. The filing also references their earlier legal marriage registration in the United Kingdom in 1998, before their ceremonial wedding in Chennai the following year. Alongside the divorce petition, Sangeeta has sought an interim order allowing her to continue residing at the couple's matrimonial home at Casuarina Drive in Chennai until the case is finally disposed of.
