The first schedule of Chiranjeevi's Vishwambhara kicked off recently and is progressing at a steady pace, with Trisha's addition to the star cast adding more strength. The actress has been on a roll of late after her powerful performances as Kundavi in Mani Ratnam's magnum opus money-spinners Ponniyin Selvan: 1 (2022) and Ponniyin Selvan: II (2023), and Sathya in 'Thalapathy' Vijay's blockbuster Leo (2023). Vishwambhara is one of the biggies Trisha is currently a part of after Ajith Kumar's VidaaMuyarchi and 'Ulaganayagan' Kamal Haasan's Thug Life in Tamil, and Mohanlal's Ram and Tovino Thomas' Identity in Malayalam. 

Fans will be looking to witness Trisha charm Telugu audiences once again and this time in Vishwambhara after her last outing in the language was Nayaki (2016), which also came out in Tamil under the title Nayagi. Chiranjeevi's Vishwambhara being directed by Mallidi Vassishta of Bimbisara (2022) fame is touted to be a socio-fantasy film and will open in cinemas worldwide on January 10, 2025, ahead of Sankranti. There are several big names in the technical team associated with the film among whom include cinematographer Chota K. Naidu and editors Kotagiri Venkateswara Rao and Santhosh Kamireddy, with Academy Award winner M. M. Keeravani composing the songs and the background score; making it his fourth-time collaboration with Chiranjeevi. 

Tamil actor Mansoor Ali Khan tendered an apology to his Leo co-star Trisha Krishnan on Friday, November 24, after he came under fire for his derogatory comments that created a huge controversy. In a detailed statement released by the actor's PRO, he said, "I extend my gratitude to all the leaders, actors, and journalists, and my greetings to all those who opposed me. The Kalinga War has come to an end. Emperor Ashoka embraced ahimsa after the blood of lakhs spilled on his heart. Yes, conscience is God. When the police official said that Trisha was sad after the recent events, I said, 'I too feel the same', and came back. This is the reality." 

Mansoor Ali Khan further stated, "I lost my youth completely in the film industry. Even when my appearance is big, I have gotten only small roles. I pray to God to give me the strength to work creatively in the days ahead." He concluded his statement with his apology writing, "My co-actress Trisha, forgive me. May God bless the fortune for me to bless your Mangalyam (marital necklace, mangalsutra) as it goes around in the coconut tray in the auspicious marital ritual! Amen." Below is Mansoor Ali Khan's complete statement: 

Mansoor Ali Khan appeared before the police at the All Women Police Station at Thousand Lights in Chennai on Thursday after he was summoned over his sexist remarks against Trisha. Known for playing negative roles in Tamil films, the actor recently made derogatory comments about his Leo co-star Trisha during a press meet and expressed his regret for not having a "bedroom scene", while going on to mention his numerous "rape scenes" in the past. Addressing Mansoor Ali Khan's statements, Trisha called him out on X and wrote, "A recent video has come to my notice where Mr.Mansoor Ali Khan has spoken about me in a vile and disgusting manner.I strongly condemn this and find it sexist,disrespectful,misogynistic,repulsive and in bad taste.He can keep wishing but I am grateful never to have shared screen space with someone as pathetic as him and I will make sure it never happens for the rest of my film career as well. People like him bring a bad name to mankind." (sic) Soon after, the Nadigar Sangam (The South Indian Artistes Association) condemned Mansoor Ali Khan's comments, with the National Commission for Women (NCW) also directing the Tamil Nadu police to invoke IPC Section 509 B and other relevant laws against him. 

A recent video has come to my notice where Mr.Mansoor Ali Khan has spoken about me in a vile and disgusting manner.I strongly condemn this and find it sexist,disrespectful,misogynistic,repulsive and in bad taste.He can keep wishing but I am grateful never to have shared screen…

Singer Chinmayi Sripada has made a comeback as a voice-over artist in Leo directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj. She has dubbed Trisha in the 'Thalapathy Vijay-starrer, with fans on social media sharing positive feedback for her return in the latest mass action entertainer, which also features music composed by Anirudh Ravichander. Chinmayi, who was shadow-banned by the South Indian Cine, Television Artistes and Dubbing Artistes Union (SICTADAU) four years ago, has now in an exclusive interview with Galatta opened up about her dubbing experience in Leo in Tamil, Telugu, and Kannada languages, while also addressing the qualms she initially had about whether her voice will be featured in the film. 

Speaking about dubbing for Trisha in Vijay's Leo, Chinmayi explained how she had doubts in the beginning that her voice might be replaced. She said, "I didn't know whether my voice would be included in the film. I was also thinking about the pressure of my voice being told to be replaced. I gave it a lot of thought and discussed it with my husband Rahul. Later on, I put out a post on Twitter that I'm a million times grateful for the opportunity." Chinmayi also opened up on how audiences might have wondered if it was indeed her who dubbed for Trisha. She stated, "I said before that I was very emotional when I faced the mic and also because it's a straight Tamil venture after such a long time and such a big project. As an artiste or a singer, my talents have not been reduced. They're either the same or have gotten better. I'm well aware of my capacity. However, when this kind of thing comes my way, it is a statement and I believe that this is a big step forward for the MeToo movement too because women across India and all over the world have been banished and paid a very heavy price in naming their perpetrators."

Chinmayi continued, "From Salma Hayek to Lady Gaga. Even now, Lady Gaga continues to state that she's afraid to name her perpetrator. [[And, that's] somebody as powerful and rich as Lady Gaga. [Similarly], I have openly warned many people to be careful, but they'll be ignorant and say that they've got nothing to do with anything that's happening around them. But, I'll tell them that it's only for a few days and everything will be known later. Sometimes I feel that it would have been nice had I been warned as I would have avoided everything."

In 2018, Chinmayi’s membership was quashed from the SICTADAU after she voiced her support for women who named actor-politician Radha Ravi, the President of the dubbing union, in the MeToo movement. After challenging the dubbing union's decision, she approached the court and got an interim stay on the ban, but continued to be snubbed by the Tamil film industry. It was around the same time that Chinmayi also raised sexual harassment allegations against Vairamuthu giving an account of how she was asked by the organizer of a program in Switzerland 13 years earlier to "cooperate" with the celebrated lyricist. 

It's Leo trailer day and a new poster featuring the film's female lead Trisha Krishnan has now been unveiled. This latest poster offers a glimpse into an intense situation in the upcoming film directed by blockbuster filmmaker Lokesh Kanagaraj. The new Leo poster shows Trisha on the knife edge as we witness her in terror when she comes face-to-face with a sharp knife pointed at her with bloodstains splattered all over. Trisha is paired with Vijay once again after a gap of 15 years and the duo is expected to recreate the magic from the 2000s when they starred together in films Ghilli (2004), Thirupaachi (2005), Aathi (2006), and Kuruvi (2008).

Vijay's Leo is billed to be a gangster action drama and this latest poster of Trisha is yet another reminder that fans are in for a high-octane visual treat in theatres starting October 19 when the film opens in cinemas worldwide. The actress had first shared a glimpse of herself alongside the leading Tamil actor by posting a picture on social media on his birthday, with fans sharing their excitement to witness them in the film on the big screen soon. Trisha has also been sharing pictures taken during the shooting, with the Leo team also releasing a behind-the-scenes still of her alongside Vijay from the sets on her birthday on May 4. 

Leo is a reunion of sorts for not only Trisha with Vijay but also marks the second occasion that the Tamil superstar is collaborating with director Lokesh Kanagaraj after their blockbuster, Master (2021). The film has an ensemble star cast featuring the likes of iconic Hindi actor Sanjay Dutt who is playing the antagonist, followed by 'Action King' Arjun, Mysskin, Mansoor Ali Khan, Priya Anand, Gautham Menon, Sandy master, Mathew Thomas, among others appearing in pivotal roles. Leo is also the second time both Vijay and Lokesh Kanagaraj roped in 'Rockstar' Anirudh Ravichander to compose the music, with his songs receiving stellar feedback, and the wait is now on to listen to his background score in the film when it comes out in theatres in two weeks' time. 

Trisha Krishnan is headlining The Road, an action thriller, arriving on the big screens worldwide on October 6. The upcoming film based on real-life incidents on the highways of Tamil Nadu is billed to be an investigative thriller and is coming out in Tamil, Telugu, and Hindi languages. With The Road all set to open in cinemas in the days ahead, an intriguing trailer for the film has now been released and gives audiences a glimpse at what awaits them, with Trisha in detective mode trying to find out the reason behind a series of deaths on NH 44. 

The Road trailer starts off introducing Trisha looking over a highway and asking herself questions related to an incident that presumably has impacted her personal life. We then see her and Miya George investigating accidents happening at a particular zone on NH 44 occurring frequently. The Road trailer then goes on to show how drug cartels from Mexico might have a hand in the killings taking place on the highways and leaves everywhere shocked that such incidents are happening in Madurai. The trailer also reveals Sarpatta Parambarai stars 'Dancing Rose' Shabeer and Santhosh Prathap playing key roles, with MS Bhaskar, Vivek Prasanna, Vela Ramamoorthy, Laxmi Priya and others also a part of the film.

Trisha, who kicked off 2023 on a high note with Ponniyin Selvan: 2, will be looking to keep the momentum going with The Road, which also marks the directorial debut of Arun Vaseegaran and features music composed by Sam C. S. The trailer hints at an interesting watch in theatres up ahead and fans will no doubt be looking to witness plenty of twists and turns in this crime thriller. The Road is coming out before Trisha's next biggie, Leo, opposite 'Thalapathy' Vijay scheduled to release on October 19, and the leading Tamil actress will hope for a big result yet again.

With a lot of buzz surrounding the upcoming romantic comedy science-fiction venture, G. V. Prakash sat down with Galatta for an exclusive interview to talk about the film, while also speaking about a hypothetical scenario about his experience of working in 'Thalapathy' Vijay's Leo. 

Considering Adiyae hints at the idea of an alternate reality and the multiverse, G. V. Prakash in his fun-filled reply explained his experience shooting as the lead star in Leo. He goes on to explain how he fought the wolves in Kashmir referring to the Vijay-starrer's first look released on the Tamil superstar's birthday in June. He also states that he's a heroic villain upon being asked whether he's a hero or villain in his version of Leo. When suggested that he's paired with Trisha after many years, G. V. Prakash said that it was a nostalgic reunion for them while adding that Lokesh Kanagaraj is a sweet person and that he wouldn't mind if he made fun of him. 

Adiyae is coming out amidst a lot of expectations after the film's teaser and trailer received largely positive feedback from fans. The visuals showed a multiverse where 'Captain' Vijayakanth is the Prime Minister of India, who is attending the 150th-day celebration event of Vijay's Yohan: Adhyayam Ondru, followed by Venkat Prabhu playing industry peer Gautham Menon and actor-reviewer Bayilvan Ranganathan appearing in the role of an Oscar Award-winning music director hinting at A. R. Rahman in an alternate reality.
