Why Trisha Krishnan Once Called Off Her Engagement

Actor Trisha Krishnan has often been the subject of speculation surrounding her personal life. Over the years, rumours about relationships and possible marriages have surfaced repeatedly, though the actor has largely stayed away from addressing them publicly.

However, the actor once openly spoke about why she ended her engagement in 2015.

Engagement to Varun Manian Ended Months Later

In early 2015, Trisha announced her engagement to Varun Manian, a Chennai-based businessman and film producer. The engagement drew significant media attention in the South Indian film industry.

But within a few months, the engagement was called off.

Later, Trisha explained that the decision came down to a disagreement about her career in cinema.

“I Chose Films Over Marriage”

In an interview quoted by OnManorama, the actor revealed that she was asked to quit acting after marriage — something she was unwilling to do.

She said that the request directly led to the engagement being called off, as continuing her film career was non-negotiable.

Trisha also stated that acting remains her lifelong passion and that she plans to stay connected to the film industry for as long as possible, even if that means taking on different kinds of roles later in her career.

Viral Video With Vijay Sparks Fresh Speculation

Recently, Trisha found herself back in the spotlight after she was seen at a wedding reception in Chennai alongside actor-turned-politician Vijay, founder of Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam.

A short clip of the two at the event circulated widely online, triggering renewed speculation about their relationship.

The discussion intensified after reports emerged that Vijay’s wife Sangeetha Sornalingam had reportedly filed for divorce, with some reports mentioning an alleged extramarital relationship with an unnamed actress. Neither Vijay nor Trisha has responded publicly to these claims.

A Long On-Screen Partnership

Trisha and Vijay share a long professional history in Tamil cinema, having appeared together in several popular films. Their collaborations include Ghilli, Thirupaachi, Aathi, Kuruvi, and their recent reunion in Leo.

The pair’s on-screen chemistry has long been appreciated by fans, making them one of the memorable duos in Tamil cinema.

Despite years of speculation, neither actor has ever confirmed any romantic relationship beyond their professional collaborations.
