Actress Trisha Krishnan is undoubtedly a talented performer who has been in the cinema industry for decades. While she is predominantly known for her work in Tamil cinema, she has made her mark in Indian cinema, appearing in Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, and Hindi films.

Keeping this in mind, here are some of the most iconic South Indian movies featuring the actress at her finest.

7 Trisha Krishnan movies to watch on OTT

2. Abhiyum Naanum (Tamil)

If the Suriya-starrer Vaaranam Aayiram is a beloved Tamil film focusing on a father-son relationship, then Abhiyum Naanum is a perfect example of a father-daughter bond. This underrated movie in Trisha’s filmography tells a coming-of-age tale about a father who must come to terms with his precious child growing up and learn to let her live her life.
