ABOUT Trisha Krishnan

Trisha Krishnan: A Reigning Queen of South Indian Cinema Trisha Krishnan, born May 4, 1983, is a prominent South Indian actress primarily known for her work in Tamil and Telugu films. Her cinematic journey began after winning the 1999 Miss Chennai pageant. Quickly gaining recognition, she secured the title "Queen of South India," a testament to her enduring popularity and critical acclaim. Her accolades include five Filmfare Awards South, one Tamil Nadu State Film Award, one Nandi Award, and eight SIIMA Awards, highlighting a prolific and successful career. While her debut role was a minor one in Jodi (1999), her leading role in Mounam Pesiyadhe (2002) propelled her to stardom. Subsequent successes like Saamy (2003), Ghilli (2004), and Aaru (2005) in Tamil, and Varsham (2004), Nuvvostanante Nenoddantana (2005), Athadu (2005), and Aadavari Matalaku Ardhalu Verule (2007) in Telugu cemented her position in the industry, earning her three Filmfare Awards for Best Actress - Telugu. Her foray into Hindi cinema included Khatta Meetha (2010). Critically acclaimed performances followed in Abhiyum Naanum (2008), Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa (2010), Kodi (2016), and the romantic drama '96' (2018). Her roles in the historical epic Ponniyin Selvan: I (2022) and its sequel Ponniyin Selvan: II (2023) further solidified her standing. The latter, along with Kodi and '96', garnered her significant awards recognition, including the Filmfare Critics Best Actress - Tamil and the Best Actress - Tamil. Her highest-grossing film to date is the recent action release, Leo (2023). Trisha’s career showcases remarkable versatility and sustained success in the South Indian film industry.
