Madhampatty Rangaraj Marries Joy Crizildaa Again as She Announces Six-Month Pregnancy

His first wife’s denial of any divorce has prompted legal scrutiny over the validity of his second wedding under India’s bigamy laws.

Overview

  • The couple held an intimate temple ceremony on July 26 featuring traditional Hindu rituals, including Rangaraj applying kumkum on Crizildaa’s forehead and both wearing garlands.
  • Joy Crizildaa revealed in social media posts that she is six months pregnant with their first child and shared images of her baby bump hours after the vows.
  • Shruthi Rangaraj, a Coimbatore-based advocate and mother of Rangaraj’s two sons, publicly dismissed divorce rumors earlier this year and still identifies herself as his wife online.
  • Rangaraj has not issued any public statement since the second marriage and pregnancy announcements, though he previously told Cinema Vikatan he would speak only if necessary.
  • Under Indian law, bigamy is prohibited, and the absence of a confirmed divorce has raised questions about the legal standing of the new marriage.
