Chennai: A throwback video of Trisha Krishnan humorously saying she wanted to become Tamil Nadu’s Chief Minister has gone viral, coinciding with the political surge of Vijay and his party Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK).
Old interview sparks fresh chatter
The clip, reportedly from a 2004 interview during the early phase of Trisha’s career, shows the actress responding playfully to a question about her ambitions.
“I want to become the CM of Tamil Nadu. Honestly! Wait and see; I will achieve it in the next 10 years.”
When asked what she would do after becoming Chief Minister, she quipped:
“First, you all vote and elect me, then I’ll tell you!”
Though clearly said in jest, the video has gained traction amid heightened political discussions in the state following the 2026 Assembly election results.
Timing fuels online speculation
The resurfacing of the clip comes at a time when Vijay’s TVK has emerged as a major political force in Tamil Nadu, intensifying social media conversations.
Tamil Nadu is witnessing a closely fought contest involving the ruling Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam led by M. K. Stalin, the opposition All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam, and Vijay’s TVK.
Visit to Vijay’s residence
Adding to the buzz, Trisha was recently seen visiting Vijay’s residence in Chennai. Visuals shared online showed her arriving by car, drawing attention from fans and media alike.
The visit coincided with TVK’s strong performance in the الانتخابات, where the party emerged as the single largest force, leading in over 100 seats.
Birthday prayers at Tirupati
Earlier in the day, Trisha marked her 43rd birthday with a spiritual visit to the Tirumala Venkateswara Temple.
Dressed in a simple floral outfit, she was seen offering prayers and greeting devotees. Photos and videos from the temple quickly surfaced online, adding to the day’s viral moments.
Social media links and rumours
In recent months, Vijay and Trisha have frequently been linked in online discussions and speculation. However, neither has addressed these rumours publicly.
The viral video, combined with her visit and the ongoing political developments, has only amplified chatter — though it remains largely driven by fan curiosity and social media narratives.
A moment of nostalgia
Ultimately, the resurfaced clip offers a light-hearted glimpse into Trisha’s early years — a reminder of how old interviews can take on new meanings in changing contexts.
While her “CM ambition” was clearly made in jest, its timing has ensured that it resonates once again — this time against the backdrop of real political change in Tamil Nadu
