She later rose to fame after starring in the successful films, Saamy (2003) and Ghilli (2004) in Tamil cinema and Varsham (2004) in Telugu cinema, for which she secured her first South Filmfare Best Actress Award. She is said to be the highest paid actress in south India.[3] She made her Bollywood debut in the 2010 film Khatta Meetha.[4]
Early life
Krishnan was born to Krishnan Iyer and Uma Krishnan, both Hindus, in Palakkad, Kerala. She attended m.s.e.c College in Ramnad. She studied at Sacred Heart Church Park School.[5] In school, she participated in several cultural activities, sports and school band. While studying in m.s.e.c college, she ventured into part-time modeling and participated in various beauty pageants. She converses fluently in Tamil, Telugu, Hindi & English. As part of her modeling career, she appeared in many TV advertisements including that of Fanta, Tata Indicom, and Vivel ITC. She also appeared in Falguni Pathak's music video Meri Chunar Ud Ud Jaye as Ayesha Takia's friend dancing in the video.[3][6]
Film career
Soon after her pageant success, Krishnan began her career acting in an uncredited role as Simran's friend in Jodi before moving onto appear in advertisements and in music videos, with Falguni Pathak's Meri Chunar Ud Ud Jaye being the most prominent. The first project she accepted was the Priyadarshan-directed Lesa Lesa, with the promotional posters for the film, also creating an offer to star in the A. R. Rahman musical, Enakku 20 Unakku 18.[7] However both the projects' releases were severely delayed, and her first release was Ameer's Mounam Pesiyadhe opposite Surya Sivakumar. The film became a moderate success at the box office and did manage to gain credentials for Trisha, with critics claiming that she was "undoubtedly a refreshing new find, with sparkling eyes and appealing demeanour", also going onto praise the dubbing artiste, Savitha Reddy, who has since regularly dubbed for Trisha.[8] Manasellam, her second project, saw her play a cancer patient; but the film also went unnoticed despite positive reviews for the film and the actress.[9]
However her next in 2003, the Hari-directed police film, Saamy with Vikram, became a blockbuster at the box office, landing her new offers. In the same year she starred in Varsham in Telugu which went on to become the biggest hit of the year and turned her into an overnight sensation. In 2005, she starred alongside Siddharth Narayan in the Telugu flick Nuvvostanante Nenoddantana as the village girl Siri. The movie is about a rich boy, who tries to marry a girl - however her brother opposes. It is directed by Prabhu Deva, was successful at the box office,[10] and Krishnan won two awards for the film which include the Filmfare Award and Nandi Award.[11]
She appeared in Mani Ratnam's Aayutha Ezhuthu which was remade into a hit Hindi movie Yuva. The Tamil version included Siddharth Narayan, Madhavan and Surya. Her later movies, Jiand Aathi did not do well, while Aaru was a success and was received well by critics and both dubbed in Tamil and Telugu and produced by Saran, who had previously directed several successful movies.[12] Her 2006 Telugu movie, Pournami, directed by Prabhu Deva, was a flop. However, another 2006 film, Something Something ... Unnakum Ennakum, where Krishnan acted opposite Jayam Ravi, did well at the box office. Something Something ... Unnakum Ennakum is a remake of the Telugu movie, Nuvvostanante Nenoddantana where she plays the same role.

Her 2010 Telugu release Namo Venkatesa, opposite Venkatesh, is a super hit. Krishnan is now starring in Manmadhan Ambu with Kamal Haasan and R. Madhavan.
