Actress Ambika on Trisha, CM Vijay’s Silverstone appearance: ‘Avoid it’
Veteran actress Ambika has said she would personally avoid situations that could bring criticism to a friend in a position of influence, commenting on Trisha Krishnan and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Vijay's appearance at Silverstone
Veteran actress Ambika has weighed in on the appearance of Trisha Krishnan and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Vijay at Silverstone, saying she would personally stay away from situations that could invite unnecessary speculation or bring criticism to a close friend who holds a position of influence.
Speaking to RedPix, Ambika addressed the public discussion that has followed viral videos of Trisha and Vijay attending the Le Mans race at Silverstone, England, on Saturday. “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 said.
She also responded to criticism she received after a previous interview where she had spoken about Trisha. “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,” Ambika said.
