TRISHA KRISHNAN

She is sensational. And yet she is down to earth and simple at heart. Her drop-dead looks can impress the most discerning critic. But she will never give you a moment to believe that she is someone special. Meet one of Chennai's most beautiful women - Trisha Krishnan.

When girls her age are still trying to grapple with acne, Trisha is out walking a ramp, sporting some amazing outfits. To say that she is charming would be playing down a lot of this taurean's personality. Her light brown eyes and glorious smile speak volumes, but they don't outdo her sharp intellect. Trisha was crowned Miss Chennai for the year 2000. On the professional front, she has already done a couple of advertisements including Lalitha Jewellers and Kumaran Silks.

Trisha hopes to wait a couple of years before competing for the Femina Miss India crown, her best bet for the famed Miss Universe title. One would be astonished to learn that this belle is just out of school. And yet she has a certain maturity about her.

She is a talented ballet dancer and an expert swimmer. Trisha enjoys all the attention that she gets. And she herself idolises Claudia Schiffer, Aishwariya Rai and Madhu Sapre. Sapre is her favourite.
