Filmmaker Vikram Bhatt has come out in support of actors Vijay and Trisha Krishnan amid ongoing speculation about their alleged relationship. The director recently shared his thoughts on social media, stating that regardless of whether the rumours are true, individuals should have the freedom to love without facing public scrutiny or judgement.
Taking to his Instagram handle, Vikram shared a long note, supporting Vijay and Trisha, he wrote on Monday, March 9, “There has been a great deal of noise about the personal lives of Vijay and Trisha Krishnan. I do not know whether the rumours online are true or not. But if they are, then I feel compelled to say a few things.”
“My recent incarceration has made me understand the value of freedom. What it is to crave a cup of tea that is not going to come. What it is to hunt for a tube of toothpaste. What it is to wait for seven in the evening, when the bail applications come in.”
“But there is a worse incarceration. It is the incarceration of the human soul. The incarceration of happiness. When two people remain trapped in a relationship that has run its course, but society insists that the relationship must continue; that too is a prison. I have been on both sides of that equation. I have been somebody’s fool, and I have been fooled. In other words, I have been there. Done that. Got the T-shirt. The human heart is fallible. It goes where it finds happiness. It came together to find happiness and its going away to find happniness.”
“Speaking for myself, I would walk out of a loveless relationship. I might walk out with money. I might walk out with property. But most importantly, I would walk out with my honour and my dignity. I find something admirable in Vijay and Trisha. There is dignity in not pretending that something does not exist. There is dignity in not hiding love as though it were something sinful.”
“We all know the other kind of life that people live.Men who run anonymous profiles on dating sites. Men who delete their messages before they get home. Men who spend afternoons with women they will never respect enough to acknowledge publicly. And yet it is often these very people who sit in judgment over others.”
“Individually, most of us are compassionate people. We understand weakness. We understand heartbreak. We understand the complicated nature of love. But something changes when we become a collective. In a crowd, we suddenly become sinless. We become righteous. We become judges. And that is when empathy disappears. Their films belong to us. Their personal lives do not. I will always stand for the freedom of the human heart. They have a right to live and to love.”
The director’s comments come at a time when rumours about Vijay and Trisha’s relationship have once again become a major talking point on social media. The speculation intensified recently after the two actors were spotted together at a high-profile wedding in Chennai. Photos and videos from the event quickly went viral, with fans and internet users debating whether their appearance together hinted at a deeper connection.
Meanwhile, neither Vijay nor Trisha has publicly addressed the rumours. Both actors have continued to maintain their silence regarding the speculation surrounding their personal lives. Their fans, however, remain divided, with some dismissing the rumours while others continue to speculate online.
Vijay and Trisha have shared screen space in several successful Tamil films over the years and are considered one of the most popular on-screen pairs in South Indian cinema. Their long professional association and friendly public interactions often draw attention from fans and the media alike.
