In the dynamic world of South Indian cinema, where fresh faces keep arriving each year and trends change overnight, Trisha Krishnan has done the unthinkable — she’s managed to stay relevant, respected, and now, in 2025, she’s hitting peak performance with an incredible slate of big-ticket movies. With four big-ticket projects in the pipeline — Vidaa Muyarchi, Good Bad Ugly, Thug Life, and Suriya45 — Trisha is not simply hanging in there, she’s reigning supreme.
Her movie picks this year are a strong mix of box office pull and role-based performance-oriented roles, each highlighting various aspects of her acting abilities. Let us examine each of these big releases in detail and how they are making this year a career-defining one for Trisha.
Vidaa Muyarchi: Emotional Depth Meets Mass Appeal
Directed by Magizh Thirumeni and featuring Ajith Kumar in the title role, Vidaa Muyarchi is among the most anticipated films of the year. The film has been shot at exotic foreign destinations and promises an intriguing plot with plenty of action, drama, and emotional depth.
Trisha has a central place in the movie — not only as a romantic interest, but as a character with emotional depth and substance. Her rapport with Ajith, who was last seen in movies like Kireedam and Mankatha, is likely to be the major draw.
The film’s title, which translates to “relentless effort”, resonates with Trisha’s own journey in the industry. Fans are already praising her look and screen presence from the first glimpses released, and many believe her performance will be among the highlights of the film.
Good Bad Ugly: A Stylish Multi-Shade Drama
This stylish action thriller, which is directed by Adhik Ravichandran and has Ajith Kumar in a triple role, has Trisha in a fascinating characterization opposite one of Ajith’s three personas. The movie, which works around the premise of morality — the good, the bad, and the ugly — provides enough screen space for Trisha to excel at an emotionally nuanced role.
In a movie that ventures into psychological depth and dramatic narrative, Trisha injects gravitas and poise into her role. As the action scenes and Ajith’s triple act are holding audiences spellbound, Trisha’s character is said to have a shocking twist in store that coincides with the emotional peak of the movie.
The film is already generating buzz for its daring storytelling and stylized treatment, and Trisha’s addition brings a touch of maturity and star power to a film trying to walk the tightrope between mass markets and new narrative endeavor.
Thug Life: Mani Ratnam’s Dream with Kamal Haasan and Trisha
If one movie that critics and cinephiles are desperately waiting to watch exists, that movie is Thug Life. Written and directed by the great Mani Ratnam and featuring Kamal Haasan, Thug Life is a cinematic spectacle through and through. Told in stylized form in the underworld, Thug Life boasts a pan-Indian appeal coupled with an excellent supporting cast.
Trisha is reunited with Mani Ratnam and Kamal Haasan in this venture, essaying a gritty, textured role that’s different from her usual fare. Mani Ratnam is famous for penning strong women characters, and sources indicate that Trisha’s character is central to the story, with shades and vulnerability.
The teaser gave a glimpse of a dark, gritty character for Trisha, and fans were immediately impressed. Her work in Thug Life can easily generate awards buzz, solidifying her position as one of the few actresses who can effortlessly move between mainstream and performance-driven cinema.
Suriya45: A Promising Collaboration with Suriya
Following the huge success of Ponniyin Selvan and her pan-India fame, Trisha is currently onboard Suriya45, the next big banner movie starring superstar Suriya. Directed by Karthik Subbaraj, the movie is claimed to be an out-of-the-box thriller with a distinctive story.
Trisha’s role in the film is under strict wraps, but precursors indicate she has a mysterious and important part to play, integral to the unfolding of the plot. Her on-screen presence with Suriya — last seen in Manmadhan Ambu (special cameo) and Aaru — will spark nostalgia among long-time admirers.
This movie not only enhances Trisha’s box office standing but also puts her in another innovative arena, acting with one of the most talented actors and progressive directors to be working in the business.
2025: Trisha’s Year of Reinvention and Recognition
What is making 2025 so career-high for Trisha is not only the number of films but also the diversity and quality. From high-octane big-banner action movies and hard-hitting thrillers to tearjerkers and cinematic masterpieces, she’s doing it all.
She is no longer acting only the heroine; she is acting the heart of the movie, the emotional north, or the surprise twist — a definite sign of how far she has traveled from her beginning romantic leading lady days in the 2000s.
Trisha’s knack for remaining contemporary in an industry that tends to push women actors aside after the age of 30 is a reflection of her skill, determination, and versatility. She’s collaborating with the cream of the crop — Ajith, Kamal, Suriya, Mani Ratnam — and giving top performances, showing no signs of decline.
