Speculation surrounding Trisha Krishnan and Thalapathy Vijay has once again taken over social media, especially after fresh developments in the actor’s personal life. Reports that Vijay’s estranged wife Sangeetha Sornalingam has filed for divorce have reignited long-standing rumours about the actor’s alleged closeness with his frequent co-star Trisha.
Amid the growing chatter, an old interview of Trisha talking about her first meeting with Vijay and their long professional bond has resurfaced online — adding even more fuel to the ongoing speculation.
Old Interview Goes Viral Again
In a past conversation with The Hindu, Trisha had spoken warmly about her decades-long association with Vijay. Reflecting on their first meeting, the actress revealed that she met the star when she was still very young in the industry.
According to Trisha, she was around 19 or 20 years old when she first met Vijay. Over the years, their professional relationship gradually evolved into a strong friendship.
She also spoke about working with Vijay again in Lokesh Kanagaraj’s blockbuster film Leo. The actress said that collaborating with someone she had known for over two decades felt incredibly natural.
For Trisha, returning to work with Vijay felt almost like “coming back home.” She explained that their long friendship created an effortless comfort on set, something director Lokesh Kanagaraj intentionally used while shaping their characters’ dynamic in the film.
Reunion During Leo Strengthened Their Bond
After Leo hit theatres and became one of the biggest Tamil releases of 2023, Trisha once again opened up about sharing screen space with Vijay.
During the film’s success event, she described the experience as similar to meeting a school friend after many years. According to her, the same sense of comfort, affection, and familiarity remained intact between them despite the passage of time.
The actress also highlighted that among all her co-stars across a 20-year career, Vijay is the one she has shared the longest professional journey with.
She even described the Leo shoot as feeling less like work and more like a relaxed gathering among friends.
Vijay’s Praise for Trisha
At the same event, Vijay himself had some heartfelt words for Trisha.
The actor praised her longevity in the industry, noting that while many actresses debut young, maintaining the position of a leading heroine for over two decades is a remarkable achievement.
He also playfully referred to Trisha as “Princess Kundavai,” a nod to her iconic role in Ponniyin Selvan. Vijay joked about her distinctive “princess wave,” which fans instantly recognised, and wished her continued success.
His light-hearted remarks at the event were widely appreciated by fans at the time and are now being widely shared again amid the current rumours.
Rumours Intensify After Divorce Reports
The buzz surrounding Vijay and Trisha has intensified after reports surfaced that Sangeetha Sornalingam filed for divorce from the actor. According to claims circulating online, the petition allegedly mentioned Vijay’s closeness with another actress.
Adding to the speculation, Vijay and Trisha were recently seen attending a wedding reception together in Chennai, which quickly became a talking point across social media platforms.
Another moment that caught attention was a cryptic post by Vijay’s bodyguard Aroon Suresh, who briefly shared a message on Instagram saying it was “time to rise above rumours.” The post was later deleted but had already gone viral, further fuelling online discussions.
Trisha’s Recent Work
On the professional front, Trisha continues to remain one of the most active and celebrated actresses in South Indian cinema.
She was last seen playing the character Indhra in Mani Ratnam’s much-anticipated film Thug Life, which features an ensemble cast led by Kamal Haasan.
Meanwhile, fans remain eager to see whether Trisha and Vijay will reunite again on screen after the success of Leo.
Final Words
While rumours around celebrities often spread rapidly online, neither Vijay nor Trisha has publicly addressed the relationship speculation. For now, the resurfaced interviews simply highlight the long friendship and professional history between the two stars.
Whether the rumours hold any truth or not, one thing remains clear — their on-screen chemistry and decades-long association continue to fascinate fans across the Tamil film industry.
