The father-daughter duo got into a fight over family property. The actress claimed that the house belongs to her mother and that she has the right to stay at their place. Speaking to media persons in Chennai in 2018, Vanitha had said, "I am staying at my mother's house. The office address of my production house is also there. No one has objected so far. We regularly give the house out for shooting. Out of nowhere, they seem to have gotten an offer from a producer to lend the house on contract. My dad asked me to vacate the house. Even after my mother passed away, I've been staying there, it's convenient for me as well. I stay with my daughter. My dad stopped the shooting and pressured me to vacate. I told him I'm willing to stop the shooting but it's not right to ask me to leave." The matter was then dragged into the court. Vanitha is the daughter of late actor Manjula. 

2. A kidnapping case against Vanitha: 

She had mired in controversy again during her stay inside Bigg Boss Tamil house. Her ex-husband Anandaraj complained to her for forcibly hiding their daughter Jovitha in Chennai. A kidnapping case was registered against Vanitha and the cops had entered Bigg Boss house for interrogation regarding the same. After divorce, Jovitha's custody went to her ex-husband.

Whatever happened you guys have no right or reason to throw me away and be happy. I and my children deserve to be treated equally. My mom was the reason...For all the glory you guys are enjoying today. You know how hard life can be.i being a woman have been much more stronger and survived everything you guys put me through. No point calling yourself a hero just in films. Try to live up to it in real life.I think you are old enough." 

4. Vanitha's third marriage:

Vanitha Vijayakumar's third marriage with filmmaker Pete Paul grabbed a lot of attention for all the wrong reasons. Reportedly, Peter was married to Elizabeth Helen before he got married to Vanitha. However, he did not divorce his first wife before getting married to the actress. He revealed in an interview that he never thought about second marriage until he met Vanitha. This was the reason he never divorced his first wife. Peter also accused his first wife of demanding a lot of money and not supporting him during the financial crisis.
