Trisha Krishnan is back in the news in the Tamil film industry after fans noticed her silence on actor-politician Vijay's birthday, and media sources reported she is not following him on Instagram anymore. The developments have raised many questions on social media platforms and the Kollywood industry as to why the two stars are not following one another, and fans and others in the industry are now wondering why they are distant from each other.
Vijay and Trisha have a good professional relationship that has lasted for an extended period of time as they have worked together in several successful films. Their on-screen chemistry has won them a great fan base, and they are frequently called the most talked-about celebrities in South Indian cinema.
But Trisha's decision not to send a birthday message to Vijay this year jumped out at the fans. In previous years, interactions between the two stars have also been discussed on social media, so her silence is particularly telling.
Trisha, in the beginning, may have been unwilling to make any public birthday wishes out of concern for getting into it and doing more and more trolling and speculation about her on the internet. But the public conversation picked up again when the actress no longer followed Vijay on Instagram, and the actress’s followers started being reported.
The news revived old rumours about Vijay and Trisha's friendship. Most recently, we have heard that the two celebrities are friends and they have been seen a few times together on the internet. Vijay and Trisha have not spoken about it, but they are always in entertainment headlines.
The speculation about Vijay's personal life was further fueled when rumours about his personal life started circulating in entertainment circles. Rumours about Vijay's differences with his wife Sangeetha were widely circulated, and many of the rumours on social media and in gossip columns were published, but no party has ever publicly confirmed them.
At that time, the rumours reached even beyond the cinema and into the political domain. After Vijay came into politics through his own Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), there were some rumours that Trisha would also go into active politics, with Vijay’s support. These were of great interest to political observers and cinema fans around the world, but no official announcement was made.
Now Trisha’s unfollow on Instagram and not attending Vijay’s birthday online have triggered discussions among fans. Social media users have given different interpretations, from one about personal privacy to others about how friendship is changing.
But others point out that there might not be any immediate connection between the rumour and the development, and that it might just be social media habits and not an issue with someone’s personal life. Industry experts warned that it is highly unlikely to conclude from social media activity only, and celebrity profiles might not be indicative of real-life relationships.
That said, there are also rumours that family members want Vijay to become integral to his family’s life, better for his family, and settle family tensions. These are just two of the rumours, and perhaps that is why the actor’s life and the actor’s future in entertainment are in question in the future.
At this point, neither Vijay nor Trisha has commented on the reports about Instagram activity or the reason for the absence of a birthday greeting. Not until they both talk about it publicly, however, is much of the conversation speculation and fan theories.
And the missing birthday post has now become one of the most talked-about topics in Kollywood and proves once again how closely fans follow every move of their favourite stars. What is the larger context of these developments?
