Close friend and fellow actor Samantha Ruth Prabhu was also delighted with the news and posted a screenshot of the puzzle to her Instagram story, tagging Trisha and calling her “QUEEN.” Trisha responded with appreciation, writing, “Awww Sam, you all heart my gal (heart emoji).”

Their friendship goes back several years, rooted in their parallel roles in director Gautham Vasudev Menon’s films. Trisha starred as Jessie in the Tamil film Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa (2010), while Samantha took on the same role in the Telugu remake, Ye Maaya Chesave.

These simultaneous releases featured popular actors Silambarasan TR and Naga Chaitanya as the male lead Karthik in Tamil and Telugu, respectively, cementing a professional bond between Trisha and Samantha that continues to this day.

On the career front, Trisha has had a busy year. She was recently seen in Leo, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, where she starred opposite Vijay in a film that garnered much attention and praise from fans.

Her cameo in The Greatest of All Time by Venkat Prabhu, also featuring Vijay, added to her lineup of high-profile projects. Trisha’s upcoming projects include the much-anticipated Vidaamuyarchi and Good Bad Ugly alongside Ajith Kumar.

Additionally, she has wrapped shooting for Thug Life, which features Kamal Haasan, and is set to appear in Vishwambhara, co-starring Chiranjeevi. In Malayalam cinema, Trisha is working on Ram and Identity, showcasing her versatility and ability to captivate audiences across languages and industries.

The NYT crossword mention is just one of many accolades Trisha has received in her two-decade-long career, but her enthusiastic response reveals her enduring humility and connection with fans.

The actor’s presence in a New York Times puzzle reflects her growing recognition beyond India, making it a memorable moment for her and her admirers alike.
