Chennai, India – A recent social media activity by Uma Krishnan, mother of actress Trisha Krishnan, has sparked widespread online discussion about a potential marriage between her daughter and popular actor-politician Thalapathy Vijay. Uma Krishnan "liked" a fan-made video reel suggesting the two stars might soon tie the knot, intensifying long-standing rumors about their relationship. This development follows a high-profile public appearance by Vijay and Trisha at a wedding reception earlier in March 2026.
Mother's Social Media Activity Ignites Debate
The online speculation began after a fan-created video reel circulated, claiming that Vijay and Trisha could make their relationship official after the upcoming elections. The reel also suggested that an announcement might follow soon after. What caught the attention of many internet users was that Trisha's mother, Uma Krishnan, had "liked" this specific reel.
Fans quickly interpreted Uma Krishnan's "like" as a possible hint or even an indirect confirmation of the rumored relationship. Some social media users believed her action signaled that the stars were indeed planning to take their relationship to the next level. However, other fans suggested the "like" could have been accidental or that Uma Krishnan was simply showing support for her daughter amid intense public scrutiny. Observers also noted that Uma Krishnan had previously "liked" several other posts and reels hinting at an alleged relationship between Vijay and Trisha, even before their recent public appearance.[timesofindia+13]

Trisha also expressed her intention to avoid divorce and unhappiness, saying, "I want to feel whether this is the person I can live with for the rest of my life because I don't believe in divorce. I don't want to go in for a divorce when I get married and I'm someone who will." She further added, "I want to fall in love. Marriage is secondary, but I definitely want to meet my companion... that I'm very particular about. I don't want to end up divorced, I don't want to end up hurting someone else or living an unhappy life so I will think about it 100 times before I do it." These remarks highlight her thoughtful approach to long-term commitment.[timesofindia+2]
