After Vijay and Trisha’s UK appearance, Ambika said she would personally avoid situations that could invite criticism or put a friend in influential position under scrutiny.
‘If I Were In Trisha’s Place, I Would Avoid It’: Ambika On Vijay-Trisha’s Public Appearances
Vijay and Trisha Krishnan’s appearance at Silverstone in the UK recently became a talking point on social media. The two were spotted at the venue on September 12 to watch actor-racer Ajith Kumar compete in the Michelin Le Mans Cup. Vijay was there to officially wave the green flag for the race, while Trisha was also seen at the circuit. Videos showing the two watching the race from the stands quickly went viral, bringing renewed attention to their long-discussed friendship. Amid the chatter, veteran actress Ambika has now reacted to their public appearances.
What Ambika Said About Vijay And Trisha
Speaking to RedPix, Ambika said that she was expressing what she would personally do in a similar situation rather than telling someone else how to conduct their life.
She said that when a friend holds an influential position, she would be conscious of situations that could lead to unnecessary criticism or affect the way that friendship is perceived.
“Recently, I gave an interview in which I spoke about Trisha. In response, someone came out in support of Trisha and asked, ‘Was she the Trisha of the 1980s?’ Now, I want to know two things. If I were the Trisha of the 1980s, then who was the Vijay of the 1980s? I want to know. The person should tell me that. That’s one thing,” said the veteran actress.
“People have asked whether you are talking about dressing alike and wearing matching outfits or about travelling to London. If I were in that position, and I knew something I did could bring criticism or give my friend a bad name, I would avoid it. That is my opinion,” she added.
‘We Should Be A Little Careful’
“Otherwise, people also begin to feel disappointed. They may say, ‘Fine, you say that you are just friends. But do we have to keep fighting and defending you every single time?’ So, if we value that friendship, we should also be a little careful about how we conduct ourselves,” she added.
Her comments come at a time when Vijay and Trisha’s public appearances have continued to attract considerable attention.
