Actress Vanitha Vijayakumar had a dream debut in Kollywood as a teenager when she starred as the female lead opposite Thalapathy Vijay in 'Chandralekha' released in 1995. She also starred in 'Manikkam' opposite Raj Kiran but quit movies to marry actor Akash in 2000. The couple have two children Vijay Sri Hari and Jovika but got divorced in 2007.

Vanitha later married Anand Jayarajan in 2007 and have a daughter Jonitha but she also divorced him in 2012. Now while daughters Jovika and Jonitha live with their mother, Vijay Sri Hari chose to live with his father Akash and has since been estranged from his mother Vanitha.

Vanitha in many interviews has shared that she loves her son very much and is waiting for the day he will realise her love and reunite with her. Vijay Sri Hari turned 21 and Vanitha has posted an emotional message to him once again. She wrote "To my first and forever love...love is supposed to be unconditional and a mother's love for her children is the puresh form of love...Its my 21st birthday as a mom today...happy birthday to my handsome and strong willed most talented son...you will always remain my laddoo...god bless you with all you dream for".

Vijay Sri Hari has completed his studies abroad and reports suggest that he will follow in the footsteps of his grandfather Vijayakumar, grandmother the late Manjula Vijayakumar, mother Vanitha, aunts Preetha and Sreedevi and uncle Arun Vijay and will make a foray into the Tamil film industry as hero soon.
