Trisha Krishnan Once Rated Thalapathy Vijay Low on Sex Appeal
The video dates back several years to a promotional interview where Trisha was asked to rank various South Indian actors based on their "sex appeal." In the clip, Trisha places Vijay at the bottom of a list that includes actors like Ajith Kumar, Silambarasan, Suriya, Vikram and Arya.
Despite the lighthearted nature of the original segment, the timing of its reappearance has caught the attention of the Leo actor’s massive fanbase. While some users are sharing the clip as a humorous throwback, others are discussing the evolution of Vijay's public image from a commercial cinema icon to a serious political contender.

The resurfaced footage has triggered a variety of responses from netizens. Supporters of the actor have been quick to defend him, pointing out that "sex appeal" is subjective and that Vijay’s primary appeal lies in his massive screen presence and "mass" charisma.
On the other hand, some fans of the Trisha-Vijay "on-screen pair" who have worked together in hits like Ghilli and Kuruvi have taken the video in stride, noting the friendly rapport the two stars have shared over two decades in the industry. Rumours regarding their off-screen relationship have often circulated in the media, though neither has ever confirmed such claims.
Political Milestone for Thalapathy Vijay and TVK
The viral moment comes at a time when Vijay is dominating headlines for his performance in the political arena. Following the official launch of Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), the actor has secured a significant victory in recent electoral developments, signalling a shift in Tamil Nadu’s political landscape.
Vijay’s transition from cinema to politics follows in the footsteps of legendary figures like MG Ramachandran and J Jayalalithaa. His party’s recent success is seen by many analysts as a testament to his immense popularity and the successful mobilisation of his fan base into a dedicated voter bloc.
Vijay and Trisha Krishnan's Professional Synergy
Despite the old ranking, Trisha and Vijay remain one of the most celebrated duos in Tamil cinema. They most recently reunited for Lokesh Kanagaraj’s 2023 blockbuster Leo, which was a major commercial success. Trisha Krishnan Net Worth: Salary, Real Estate and More – How Rich Is the ‘South Queen’?.
