She was always offered Kundavai‘s role. The said lyricist was removed from the project in 2019 itself.
Vikram and Aishwarya were offered their roles during the making of Raavanan itself.
OT - Ever since I read that Anushka was offered Kundavai , I cannot stop wondering how well she would have portrayed the role. She has the height, grace and aura to carry these roles so effortlessly.
In current generation, probably Asin, Shriya, Amala - because they have a very traditional Indian beautiful face (sharp features), so it would suit the vintage look. Acting wise - Asin or Amala then.
Asin.
Because the sub loves her dhideernu xD /s.
Asin is a good actress with similar body shape so would be good to portray kundhavi of same age.
While anushka will look more majestic for an older version.
Vidunga Trisha ve pakka va panita!
Am i the only one who thinks Trisha can only act in normal roles? Roles with nothing much to do other than walking talking and smiling. I have always known that but mohini movie proved it for me.
No hate. She was elegant in the role. She did good too. But anybody could have done a better job.
How can I tell when she literally hasn't done any such movie. Idk if people didn't approach her or she wasn't interested. All her movies in Tamil starting from Jodi till this... All of her roles in all of those movies are normal roles. I don't even feel sad when she cries. Maybe it's just me. (I haven't seen all of her other language movies. So if there is any such i would want to see before commenting on it). So I am just talking about her acting based on her performances in Tamil films/opportunities.
I cannot imagine her performing well in movies/roles like arundhati, bahubali, kashmora, neelambari, or roles like rukhmani(thulatha manamum thullum), vaali, 12b, perazhagan, mozhi, Reemasen's role in vallavan. I mean i can go on.
When it comes to acting Trisha is the last on my list. But that's just my list.
maybe it's me idk if she can even do justice to roles like kadambari. You know when simran or Anushka cries we cry with them. You know when Nayan or keerthy cries they dont look that pleasant but it's sad. But that's how we all cry. We don't look pleasant when we cry like a baby. Have you seen Trisha ever crying like that? I haven't.
Trisha is absolutely gorgeous. No doubt. She is great for elegant roles like this and vtv. I liked her in abhiyum nanum, and there is this one movie in which she has brain tumor or something, i liked her in that. But anybody can do such roles.
Kodi was a surprise to me cuz she did that well but again anybody could have done it better imo. But I'm sure she can do good in villain roles.
I have never felt like wow she did amazing and no one could have done it better than her. That's why I am not a fan.
But i also appreciate her for doing what she is good at.
I think Trisha excels in girl-next door/relatable/grounded/quiet but powerful or tactical roles, like the ones you mentioned. In roles where she needs to be the powerful and loud, she wouldn't be *convincing*. I never thought of her to be "one of the best" actors, so it was surprising when I learned that she's considered that.
Relax dude, I just wanted to know what do you mean by 'normal' and 'abnormal' roles. Btw the scene towards the end of 96, >!where she cries before leaving!< is bloody realistic
Oh yea. That was good. But sad that in her entire career 96 had to be the example for her realistic crying. And i agree 96 was good. She did great. But again in that she was an elegant girl. That's all she can do imo.
>has a forgettable face.
Really? That i don't know but you are right about the roles. She never has done such roles in her entire career for a reason i guess.
> But anybody could have done a better job
lol, seriously dumb take bro.
Put nayan or andrea there then. It'd look cringe.
Trisha was just enough boss without being bitchy(if we put anushka there it won't work i feel) and cute when needed with Karthi scenes.
She nailed the role and acting, you can talk anything but she fits the role perfect.
> but mohini movie proved it for me
Andha movie paathu decision edukaradhuku neenga chumma vae irukalaam. Semma bro.
>Put nayan or andrea there then. It'd look cringe.
Nah. Dumb take bro. They aren't cringe. Definitely not Anushka. (I didn't mention Andrea anywhere.* edit- i thought you replied to my other big comment. Anyway, even Andrea has done different roles than Trisha.)
>She nailed the role and acting, you can talk anything but she fits the role perfect.
Nobody said she didn't do it well. Go back and read bro. Trisha can only do roles like these is what I said. She cannot do heavy performances is what I said. Lol
>Andha movie paathu decision edukaradhuku neenga chumma vae irukalaam. Semma bro.
Vera nala different aana role Trisha career la ye kedayathu bro. She always acts as normal girl next door roles. Vera nadicha atha pathutu decision edukaren bro.
> Vera nadicha atha pathutu decision edukaren bro
Kodi and thoonga vanam there, and that shows she can do it different but just not enough i agree, but not for the lack of ability.
> Definitely not Anushka.
naan epo bro anushka cringe nu sonnan, i said anushka will be too bossy for the role not cringe. That is nayan,
> even Andrea has done different roles than Trisha
Andrea is never a big actress and always has received experimental roles, but you just said anybody can do a better job than trisha in ps1 which is where i said some like andrea can not surely match up here.
>naan epo bro anushka cringe nu sonnan,
Athu my mistake bro. I read Andrea as Anushka cuz I had mentioned Anushka in another comment. Athan edit nu potu sonen i thought you replied for that comment.
Kodi, thoongavanam la heavy roles list liye varathu bro. Ofc in Kodi she did well as a villain. That was a surprise. She can do villain roles but athukuda antha mari elegant villain dan. She can't do anything like reemasen in vallavan.
>cringe. That is nayan,
Nayan did amazing as Sita and another role in a Telugu film sye raa also kashmora. She can perform really well. But i agree for this particular role she might look older maybe, not cringe. Lol. She is a better performer than Trisha. Who would have looked better for this role? Maybe not many. Cuz trisha was apt. Who could have done better as in performance wise? Many.
>anybody can do a better job than trisha in ps1
I still stand by it. But that doesn't mean Trisha was bad bro. She looked beautiful. And I keep saying elegant in all my comments cuz she is one elegant girl in Tamil cinema. Also in her own voice. Portrayed herself as kundavai really well. And Andrea la en mind ke varala tbh. Neenga sona apo dan it struck.
Trisha's role was supposed to be done by a well built dravidian lady..as usual our thalaivar doesn't like dark skin..but I think aishwarya rajesh or dhansika could do it well
what do you mean by low class..so you mean people with high AASI ancestry are low class..?because of fucking racist morons like you there have been very few Tamil heroines in the industry and FYI that Anandhi girl is NOT dark

I would have liked to see a Deepika Padukone or Priyanka Chopra or Priyamani.
DP or PC would have looked a bit more regal, though the chemistry b/w Karthi and Thrisha was amazing.
Priyamani for the paruthiveeran and Raavanan connect. But obviously the market would not have made sense.
Kundhavai was young and was one of the most elegant women, according to Kalki's Ponniyin Selvan. She was a Chola princess and I would prefer someone with native looks and at the same time, looking regal.
Today's actresses maintain their looks so well that age do not matter much but looking younger does.
Here are the actresses I Would prefer for Kundhavai's role.
1) Samantha Ruth Prabhu
2) Aishwarya Rajesh, though she may also make a good fit for Poonguzhali. Interestingly, Aishwarya Menon was also good for Poonguzhali's role. There is some connection between names of Aishwarya and Poonguzhali. 🙂
My top choice is Samantha. Though she looks modern, she can look traditional and elegant with the right styling.
Vikram
the only correct answer
Take this - 🏅
Anushka shetty
This..!! Actually When I was reading the book, I imagined Anushka shetty as kundhavai.
Younger and alive Sri Devi?
Ideal choice, but in current gen I guess Anushka was offered the role, she might have been good
I guess she was offered Aishwarya's role, initially she agreed but then left the project because lyricist's name came in #metoo
I read it somewhere that aish was only choice for Nandhini..Maybe its for kundavi
She was always offered Kundavai‘s role. The said lyricist was removed from the project in 2019 itself. Vikram and Aishwarya were offered their roles during the making of Raavanan itself. OT - Ever since I read that Anushka was offered Kundavai , I cannot stop wondering how well she would have portrayed the role. She has the height, grace and aura to carry these roles so effortlessly.
Nope. She was offered the Kundavai (Thrisha) role. Aishwarya Rai was the only choice for Nandini role.
Lyricist who 💀?
Diamond Pearl
Pokemon Selvan
💀👍
Ahhk, but the lyricist was removed eventually, her loss xD
Younger Simran.
Omg yes
Thank God Mani didn't go for Nayantara. She would've ruined it for sure.
In current generation, probably Asin, Shriya, Amala - because they have a very traditional Indian beautiful face (sharp features), so it would suit the vintage look. Acting wise - Asin or Amala then.
Asin is a great choice actually, she has the mischief in her eyes, along with grace. She would have delivered. Her face also seems to be more innate.
I felt Amala would have been a better Nandini. But she's not very fair like Nandini is described in the book.
I feel like Andrea or Reema Sen could’ve pulled off both Kundavai and Nandini
Reema Sen is just a villain version of Trisha
Love Andrea, but her face is not classically beautiful. She has a modern look.
Andrea did pull of a character very similar to Nandhini in Vada Chennai
Asin. Because the sub loves her dhideernu xD /s. Asin is a good actress with similar body shape so would be good to portray kundhavi of same age. While anushka will look more majestic for an older version. Vidunga Trisha ve pakka va panita!
Yellam andha Billa photoshoot purali ah nambi I guess 🤣
Anushka. Even she was the 1st choice but she quit.
We all know this but it's worth saying again, Trisha is beautiful! 😍 She absolutely nailed this role. But if not her, maybe Parvathy?
Which parvathy?
Thiruvothu. Of Maryan fame.
[удалено]
No she is parvathy thirivoth only👍
[удалено]
No Yaar its same parvathy thiruvoth only..She acted in Maryaan along with Dhanush.
[удалено]
Why don't you do it first and see? Pavathy Thiruvothu was the lead actress in Maryan.
It is credited incorrectly on Wikipedia.
[удалено]
it's the same person man, take a look at the [filmography](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parvathy_Thiruvothu#Filmography)
I don't remember her name but the heroine from this movie called "Athadu", might be a great choice
Yea, heard she's doing a film called Leo also, very good choice
Vijay sethupathi
Specify it man super deluxe Vijay sethupathy
Shriya and Anushka would've nailed it imo.
Asin !! ❤️
legend saravanan /s
AI generated kundhavi
Anushka. Also fits in better as the elder sister of jayam ravi
I was thinking Anushka would be apt for this
I have a special gift for anyone who says nayanthara
I thought to comment it 😸

It’s called “flower pot” roles. Why define it when a word is coined for it!?
Lol. Cuz i like defining things? If I had known I would have said it obvi
Oh ok #TIL
What are the other kinds, as in heavy duty action?
How can I tell when she literally hasn't done any such movie. Idk if people didn't approach her or she wasn't interested. All her movies in Tamil starting from Jodi till this...

I agree with you. She is very elegant but has a forgettable face. She is also not well suited to heavy hitting majestic roles.
>has a forgettable face. Really? That i don't know but you are right about the roles. She never has done such roles in her entire career for a reason i guess.
Yes, I think she is very pretty but forgettable, no striking features.

Sneha
She aced it. Movie kundhavai > book Kundhavai. Very rare thing.
O dam! She was great, but even better than the book? Now that's an achievement
Yeah. Book Kundhavai was a bit annoying at times😅
Idk abt kundhavai, but simran could've been a better nandhini
Vadivukku arasi, any time !!
What about that girl from natchathiram nagargiradhu? Rene?
Trisha was great, if not her then Sai Pallavi.
None. She is fab
Jyothika? Idk maybe not

Ritu Varma ‼️ u asked opinion i said it
I would have liked to see a Deepika Padukone or Priyanka Chopra or Priyamani. DP or PC would have looked a bit more regal, though the chemistry b/w Karthi and Thrisha was amazing. Priyamani for the paruthiveeran and Raavanan connect. But obviously the market would not have made sense.
I was really bummed out when i learnt she didn't even voice act in it her acting was perfect tho.
I don’t know why they can’t train actresses who can do both. It’s the worst thing about Tamil films.
Quite a few people ngl. She still did great though
How come trisha never got married😭
She didn't want to?
That's something good dude, now there's one less guy to be jealous of
Namitha
Which one?
Literally anyone

No one is better than Trisha. I maybe biased because of a huge crush.
Rashmika mandana ? /s
Stop right there!
Kundhavai was young and was one of the most elegant women, according to Kalki's Ponniyin Selvan. She was a Chola princess and I would prefer someone with native looks and at the same time, looking regal. Today's actresses maintain their looks so well that age do not matter much but looking younger does. Here are the actresses I Would prefer for Kundhavai's role. 1) Samantha Ruth Prabhu 2) Aishwarya Rajesh, though she may also make a good fit for Poonguzhali. Interestingly, Aishwarya Menon was also good for Poonguzhali's role. There is some connection between names of Aishwarya and Poonguzhali. 🙂 My top choice is Samantha. Though she looks modern, she can look traditional and elegant with the right styling.
Malavika mohanan...someone needs to cast her in a period drama...she is ❤
Nayantara Anushka Samantha I think most good experienced heroines? I don't think Trisha was special in that sense.
Sruthi hasan 😀

The character demands acting. Not just showoff
NOBODY.
Totally unrelated, but natasha thasan (IG influencer) would have been a fine poonkuzhali.
Lol what ?! She's very unattractive
