Despite being one of the most popular superstars in the Tamil cinema arena, Thalapathy Vijay has always ensured that he maintained a distinction between his personal and professional fronts. While the entire world is abuzz with the news and updates regarding his movies and appearances, Vijay has been ensuring that unnecessary media coverage is not drawn to his family, and most of all, to his kids. Vijay’s kids, Jason Sanjay and Divya Saasha, have grown up far away from the media limelight. Theirs is a tale of simplicity and proper upbringing.
Jason SanjayJason Sanjay is the child of popular actors Vijay and Sangeetha Vijay. Born on 26th August 2000. Since his childhood, he was more drawn to creative activities rather than acting. Sanjay completed his schooling from Chennai. After that, he went to some foreign institutions to further his education. It is said that he did his course in “Film Production and Direction” from “Toronto Film School” located in “Canada.” Sanjay got practical knowledge of filmmaking from the technical aspect. He did not dwell on taking the venture to act in a film but decided to learn the making of a film from behind the camera. It indicates Vijay’s influence to take his own path without being an actor.
Divya SaashaDivya Saasha, Vijay's daughter, was born on September 9, 2005. Initially, she appeared as a child artist in one of Vijay's movies, 'Thalaivaa.' However, Divya has never appeared in any movies or events after 'Thalaivaa.' Initially, Vijay made sure Divya avoided movies and media attention completely. Divya initially studied in Chennai, one of India's most popular international schools, where she devoted her time to her studies and hobbies. There are reports of her pursuing further studies in a foreign country. Vijay made sure Divya led a happy childhood, unhampered by comparisons and media attention.
Vijay as an involved and caring fatherPeople close to Vijay describe their father as always being very involved and caring when it comes to his family, as is evident in his being very involved in the lives of his children. He makes it a point to devote time to them and is always in touch with their affairs at school and otherwise. He always thought of inculcating good values in them, like discipline and humility, in which fans and admirers are in awe of both his off-screen and on-screen performance.
Keeping children away from the limelightIn an environment where star kids are often under the scanner all the time, Vijay’s unobtrusive policy of shielding his kids from the limelight is definitely to be appreciated. Vijay has hardly ever spoken about his kids in his interviews and has ensured that his offspring do not learn to live up to the demands of the public. Vijay’s policy has allowed his kids to live a life free from all kinds of comparisons and judgments.
Fans’ curiosity and respect Vijay's family decisions Although his children are of prime interest to his fans, there is also great admiration with regard to how Vijay has dealt with his family life. Although his appearances with his children are cause for jubilation with his supporters, they are also grateful to his commitment to safeguarding the children’s privacy. Now that Vijay has embarked upon a fresh life and public service, his dedication to being a loving father continues to bring great acclaim to his name. His children’s tale provides quiet affirmation that even megastars prize ordinariness and affection above all else.
