Chennai Thendral Trisha is widely celebrated for her impactful performances on the silver screen, and she has now made a powerful entry into the digital space with her crime thriller, Brinda. Directed by Surya Manoj Vangala, the web series is streaming on Sony Liv and has been receiving tremendous praise from audiences and critics alike.
Amidst the buzz, Trisha sat down with the media to share her thoughts on Brinda and her experience working on the project.
Why did you choose a crime thriller like Brinda?
Surya sent me the script to read, and while I was on a flight, I decided to go through the first few pages. I was immediately drawn into the story from the very first chapter, and the rest, as they say, is history. Playing a police officer for the first time was a major attraction for me. Any character becomes a fun challenge when you have a director with complete clarity on how he envisions the lead role. We did several readings and had extensive discussions about the body language and character sketch for Brinda. These sessions of readings, rehearsals, and brainstorming with the team made a world of difference. Collaborating with the entire cast before filming began made things much smoother on set.
While Brinda is a crime thriller, your character stands out. Do you think young girls will look up to her as a role model?
Being a role model is a bit subjective, in my opinion. However, Brinda does possess certain qualities that are commendable. Her grit, determination, and the dignity with which she handles even her toughest challenges were very endearing to me.
Are you a director’s actor, or do you prefer contributing your own inputs?
I’m definitely a director’s actor. I try to approach every role with the director's vision in mind. Of course, we worked with references and had discussions, but I primarily focus on bringing the director’s vision to life.
With Brinda, you’re debuting in multiple languages simultaneously. What are your thoughts on that?
That’s one of the reasons I was excited about being part of an OTT platform—it’s the perfect way to make a broad impact. Considering that cinema has become pan-Indian, it’s great that, regardless of language or genre, we as actors can cater to a diverse audience.
What are your thoughts on the OTT space?
I’m really excited about this new wave in entertainment because it means there’s no longer a shelf life for an actor. I don’t think there ever was, but with the fresh content, scripts, and roles being created for actors today, the possibilities are endless.
