We're going to discuss an actress today who gained widespread fame on the internet due to a sequence in the Thug Life trailer. Yes, we are talking about Abhirami, also known as Divya Gopikumar. Despite having acted in a number of films over the years, she recently gained notoriety for a kissing scene with Kamal Haasan that went viral.
Let's learn more about Abhirami before we talk about that. Because she admired the heroine in the movie Gunaa, Abhirami, whose real name is Divya Gopikumar, changed her name. The film Kathapurushan marked the beginning of her acting career.
She started out playing little parts in Malayalam films like Pathram. She later switched to Tamil films. Vaanavil (2000), her debut Tamil film, was a success. She then starred in films such as Samasthanam and Middle Class Madhavan. Virumaandi (2004), in which she played a country girl alongside Kamal Haasan, was a pivotal film in her career.
Abhirami rose to fame in Tollywood and appeared in Telugu and Kannada films as well. She landed a leading part in the film Maara in 2021. She recently starred in films such as Once Upon a Time in Madras (2024), Jolly O Gymkhana (2024), and Vettaiyan (2024).
Kalki, the couple's adopted daughter, is the result of Abhirami's marriage to Rahul Pavanan.
One of the most anticipated films of 2025 is Mani Ratnam's Thug Life. There was a lot of enthusiasm when the trailer was published by the producers. Although it received mainly good reviews, one scene in particular attracted notice and generated discussion on the internet.
In this scene, Kamal Haasan and Abhirami share a kiss. In it, the latter leans against the seasoned actor's chest and they kiss passionately. In a different scene in the trailer, he tells Trisha, "Madam, I'm your only Adam."
The actors are nearly thirty years apart in age, thus the moment elicited conflicting responses on social media.
