The ever-green beauty of South Indian cinema Trisha, continues her march forward in mostly women-centric films. From the time she made her debut as a heroine in the 2002 film 'Mounam Pesiyadhe' costarring Suriya she has been mostly seen in out and out commercial blockbusters with all the top heroes of the South.

However, in 2009 Trisha signed on to play the lead heroine in Vetrimaaran's National Award-winning movie 'Aadukalam' that had Dhanush in his Best Actor award-winning lead role as a rural man who trains cocks to fight.

Trisha shot for a few days playing Irene the anglo Indian love interest of Dhanush but opted out due to date clashes with her other career-defining film 'Vinnai Thaandi Varuvaya' directed by Gautham Vasudev Menon and costarring Simbu.

Stills of Trisha as Irene in 'Aadukalam' along with Dhanush and other scenes have now gone viral and are trending on social media. It is to be noted that actress Shriya Saran was initially cast in the role even before Trisha and she also opted out.

Finally, Tapsee Pannu now celebrated as a pan Indian actress of substance played Irene in 'Aadukalam' and received critical acclaim. Well, movies are made that way aren't they?
