Trisha replaces Abhinaya in 26/11 attacks thriller
Chennai, Jan 4 (IANS) Actress Trisha Krishnan’s next outing is Tamil-Telugu thriller “1818”, based on the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks, says a source. The project was originally launched with actress Abhinaya in 2015 and was even titled “Thudi”.

Trisha will reportedly play a receptionist in a five-star hotel.
