Sanjjanaa Galrani Defends Trisha and CM Vijay Amid Independence Day Event Criticism
Actress Sanjjanaa Galrani defended Trisha Krishnan amid criticism over her presence at Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Vijay's Independence Day event in Chennai. Sanjjanaa urged critics to focus on Vijay's political work rather than speculate about Trisha's relationship with him. She emphasized respecting Trisha's privacy and questioned why a woman was targeted instead of discussing Vijay's governance. The controversy was sparked by a DMK mouthpiece's editorial criticizing the event seating, which Sanjjanaa and others have challenged.
