Known for
Trisha Krishnan has been a leading lady of Tamil and Telugu cinema for over two decades. Born in Chennai in 1983, she rose through early-2000s blockbusters like 'Ghilli' (2004) opposite Vijay and 'Athadu' (2005), then delivered her most beloved performance as Janu, the lost first love, in the melancholy reunion drama '96' (2018). She reached a new scale as the princess Kundavai in Mani Ratnam's two-part epic 'Ponniyin Selvan' (2022-2023) and shared the screen with Vijay again in 'Leo' (2023).
