Trisha Faces Backlash Over Role in Thug Life: Here’s Why
The much-anticipated gangster action drama Thug Life, directed by Mani Ratnam and starring Kamal Haasan, hit theaters recently. Despite the excitement around this powerhouse collaboration, the film has struggled at the box office and faced mostly weak reviews.
Adding to the film’s challenges, it has now sparked controversy involving its female lead, Trisha Krishnan. Social media users have been openly criticizing her performance and the limited screen presence she has in the film, feedback that has disappointed many, considering her stature as a senior actress.
Trisha plays a romantic interest opposite Kamal Haasan and Silambarasan, but many viewers feel her role is too minor and lacks any significant depth or impact. Fans expected her to have a stronger, more substantial part, especially in a film backed by such a high-profile team.
Critics and audiences alike have expressed frustration over the underwritten character, questioning why Trisha accepted such a minimal role. Despite the film’s star-studded cast and initial hype, her performance has failed to leave a lasting impression.
This situation highlights a growing demand from viewers for every character, even supporting ones, to be meaningful and well-crafted. In today’s cinema landscape, audiences expect all actors, especially established stars, to have roles that contribute significantly to the story.
