Breaking his silence, the actor officially confirmed his divorce from his wife, Preeti Bhatia, effectively putting an end to months of rumors.
In a recent candid media interaction, the Naagin 4 and Udaan fame actor revealed that the couple had been dealing with prolonged marital struggles and officially parted ways legally. Emphasizing that the split was amicable, he shed light on the timeline of their separation and their shared focus on co-parenting their daughter.
Here is a complete, detailed breakdown of Vijayendra Kumeria’s official statement, the reasons behind the divorce, and how the former couple is handling their parental responsibilities.
“Compatibility Issues”: The Reason Behind The Split
Vijayendra Kumeria and Preeti Bhatia tied the knot in January 2012. However, after several years of togetherness, cracks began to appear in their relationship. Addressing the reasons for the split, the actor revealed that it wasn’t a sudden fallout but rather a gradual realization that they were no longer meant to be together.
He explained that they began facing “differences and compatibility issues” which only intensified over time. Despite attempts to work through their differences, they realized that moving on independently was the healthiest choice for both of them. “It wasn’t an overnight decision,” the actor noted, stating that the separation was completely mutual.
The Timeline: Separated in 2022, Divorced in 2025
While the official confirmation has just been made public, the couple’s separation dates back a few years. Vijayendra clarified that he and Preeti had been living separately since 2022. After living apart for three years and giving the situation ample thought, the couple’s divorce was officially finalized and the legal decree was granted in 2025.
The actor explained that he chose to keep the matter private for a long time to protect his family’s privacy and peace of mind during a challenging transitional period.
Co-Parenting Daughter Kimaya
Despite the end of their 13-year marriage, Vijayendra and Preeti remain fully committed to their most important shared responsibility: their daughter, Kimaya (born in 2016).
The actor emphasized that while they could not resolve their differences as husband and wife, they are completely aligned when it comes to Kimaya’s well-being. Both parents firmly believe that raising their child in a peaceful, stress-free environment while living separately is infinitely better than staying in an unhappy marriage. They are actively co-parenting and ensuring that Kimaya receives abundant love and support from both sides.
On the professional front, Vijayendra Kumeria is currently enjoying a highly successful television run, starring opposite Eisha Singh in the popular Colors TV series Juhi Mui.
