Trisha Krishnan Responds To BJP Chief’s Remarks: Actor Trisha Krishnan has issued a legal statement responding to what her team described as a “distasteful and inappropriate” remark made by a person holding a prominent position in Tamil Nadu’s political sphere. The statement was released through her counsel on February 15 and later shared by the actor on social media with the caption: “Disrespect should and always will be called out.”
The communiqué, issued by advocate Nithyaesh Natraj on behalf of the actor, clarified that Trisha is not affiliated with any political party and has consistently maintained a neutral position in matters related to politics. Without naming any individual, the statement expressed disappointment that such a comment had been made by someone occupying a significant role in the state’s political landscape.
BJP Chief’s Remark Sparks Row; Trisha Clarifies Political Neutrality
The controversy arose after remarks made by Nainar Nagenthran, the Tamil Nadu BJP chief and MLA representing Tirunelveli, were circulated widely on social media. His comments were reportedly made while addressing questions about actor-politician Vijay and his political outfit, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam. The remarks led to criticism from several quarters, including leaders from other political parties.
In the legal statement, Trisha’s counsel noted that the actor wishes to be identified solely by her work in cinema rather than by any alleged political alignment. The communiqué also emphasised that personal lives should not be drawn into public discourse, particularly by those in positions of responsibility. It requested that her name not be linked to matters unrelated to her professional career.
The statement further underlined that Trisha has “always taken a neutral stand when it comes to politics” and intends to continue doing so. The legal team described the comment as unexpected and reiterated the expectation that individuals in public office maintain decorum in their remarks.
Following the backlash, Nagenthran stated while speaking to reporters in Madurai that he did not intend to hurt anyone with his comments. The issue has since sparked discussion on social media platforms, with users sharing varying views on the matter.
Trisha and Vijay have previously worked together in several Tamil films. However, the actor’s latest statement makes clear that she does not wish to be associated with political narratives or commentary.
