Comedian Vijay Sai, who committed suicide at his Yousufguda residence early on Monday, was married to Vanitha, a small-time actress.

Vanitha has now opened up on her husband's death. "I was not even living with him as we had filed a divorce two years ago. Vijay had had an extra-marital affair and I know it for sure as I saw it with my naked eye. I don't know what drove him to take his life for the reason that I was not even living with him. It's not true that I disallowed him from meeting our daughter (who has been brought up by her)," Vanitha has said.

As per TV reports, Vijay was sad that his wife was in an alleged relationship with a businessman. He wanted his father to save his daughter from growing in bad circumstances.
