Trisha Shares Birthday Post For Vijay: 'The Person Who Makes It All Worth It'

Just hours after fans wondered why Trisha Krishnan had not wished Vijay on his birthday, the actor put all rumours to rest with a special Instagram post dedicated to the actor.

Trisha posted a candid photograph of Vijay seated in front of several birthday cakes. While the actor is seen smiling as he prepares to blow out the candles, Trisha looks at him affectionately.

Sharing the adorable moment, she wrote, "To the person who makes it all worth it, HBD. 00.00."

Her post quickly grabbed attention online, with fans flooding the comments section with love and warm wishes for the duo.

Earlier, social media had been abuzz with speculation that Trisha had unfollowed Vijay on Instagram. While some fans claimed that she had recently removed him from her following list, others pointed out that she may never have followed him on the platform in the first place.

Trisha's Birthday Posts For Vijay Over The Years

Vijay celebrated his 52nd birthday on June 22.

In 2025, Trisha shared a candid photograph of Vijay with a pet dog and wrote, "Happy Birthday bestest".

A year earlier, she posted an elevator selfie with the actor and captioned it, "The calm to a storm, The storm to a calm! To many more milestones ahead".

In 2023, she kept things simple by sharing a photograph of the two against a snowy backdrop and writing, "HBD".

Vijay And Trisha's Movies

Vijay and Trisha are regarded as one of Tamil cinema's most popular on-screen pairs. They have shared screen space in several successful films, including Ghilli, Thirupaachi, Aathi, Kuruvi, and, most recently, Leo.

About Their Relationship

In recent months, Vijay and Trisha have frequently been the subject of online speculation regarding their personal relationship. Despite ongoing rumours, neither actor has publicly addressed these claims.

Their close friendship has long been a topic of online discussion, with some users alleging a relationship between the two. Recently, after details from Vijay's divorce filings became public, sections of social media once again connected the actor with Trisha. Some political figures have also referred to the alleged relationship while criticising Vijay.

Taiwanese Brothers Amass $1 Billion From Boom In Display Chips

Biing-seng Wu has spent most of his career developing tiny chips that tell pixels on flat-screen displays how and when to light up. Twenty-five years ago, he teamed up with his brother Jordan Wu to develop such chips for screens. Today, products from their company, Himax Technologies Inc., can be found in everything from Lamborghinis to smartwatches, and have turned the duo into billionaires.

The brothers own 24% of Himax, whose US-listed shares have more than doubled in value this year. Their stake in the Tainan, Taiwan-based firm, as well as proceeds from dividends and stock sales, give them a combined $1 billion net worth, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, which is valuing them for the first time.

The wealth marks a big milestone for the siblings and their company, which says it holds a 40% market share for display chips - known in the industry as driver integrated circuits - used in cars. Its customers include Ferrari NV, Volkswagen AG, Porsche and more.

It's "not the kind of chip that grabs headlines the way an AI processor does," said Charles Shum, an analyst with Bloomberg Intelligence. "But without it, you'd be staring at a blank screen."

In a rare interview in 2022, Jordan told a Taiwanese news outlet that Himax made a bet on car display chips about two decades earlier, even though few automobiles had screens back then and Himax's resources were limited.

Today, "there are very few automakers that don't use our products in some form," he said. "Looking back, it was nothing short of a miracle."

Those early investments helped Himax build a competitive edge, Himax spokeswoman Karen Tiao said in a text message. The company's current bet on smart glasses, AI and co-packaged optics - a technology that could help data centers handle soaring bandwidth demand while consuming less power - is an extension of that, she said.

The brothers, who declined to be interviewed, aren't the only Taiwanese to reach billionaire status as the island becomes a tech powerhouse during an industry boom. The number of billionaires in Taiwan rose 9% to 51 last year, according to the UBS Billionaire Ambitions Report 2025. That's more than Japan's 41 and 31 in South Korea, the report said.

Banker, Scientist

Biing-seng, 69, got a Ph.D. in electrical engineering from Taiwan's National Cheng Kung University in 1985. He served at the Industrial Technology Research Institute, a government-backed entity meant to boost the tech sector, where he led Taiwan's early efforts to develop TFT-LCDs, a kind of flat-screen display. He later helped launch Taiwan's first manufacturing plant for those products.

Around three decades ago, Biing-seng met the founder of Chimei Corp., a Taiwanese conglomerate, to pitch him on a new venture. He later joined Chimei Optoelectronics, helping it become one of Taiwan's leading display makers.

Jordan, 66, got an MBA from the University of Rochester and worked as an investment banker at Merrill Lynch and Barclays Plc before getting into the tech sector.

The brothers founded Himax in 2001, using their own money before taking in some venture capital. A few Chimei employees joined them at the startup. Chimei became an early customer.

In 2013, Alphabet Inc., then known as Google, acquired a 6% stake in its subsidiary Himax Display Inc.

Today Himax has 2,200 employees, of whom it says more than 90% are engineers, and offices in Taiwan, China, South Korea and the US. It's a so-called fabless company, meaning it outsources the manufacturing of its chips.

In a 2022 speech at his alma mater, Biing-seng, who remains Himax's chairman, shared some of the secrets of his success: Learning is the most important thing. Sleep well. Maintain good physical strength. Wait for the right opportunity to start a business. Seek advice from experts.

"I'm always afraid of being overtaken," he said. "So I have no choice but to keep running forward."

Lionel Messi Faces Massive Off-Field Challenge, Family Shuts Down Rumours

Lionel Messi's father, Jorge Messi, is currently going through a health-related situation and is under medical supervision, recovering and progressing well, informed the football icon's family on Thursday. During his side's FIFA World Cup campaign opener for defending Argentina against Algeria on Wednesday, Messi was seen in tears after scoring, which he later said was because of "something unrelated to the game". "It was something totally unrelated to sport. I had some difficult, complicated days. I am grateful to the whole delegation, to all my teammates, because they were always by my side, as always, giving me a lot of strength," Messi said after the game. Messi's family has clarified that Messi's father is not in good health, but is "recovering and progressing well" under medical supervision.

A statement from the family, according to 433, read, "The Messi family informs that Jorge Messi is currently going through a health-related situation. At this time, he is under medical supervision, recovering and progressing favourably within the condition he is experiencing."

"In light of the reports, rumours, and speculation that have circulated in recent hours, the family wishes to express its deep discomfort with the lack of sensitivity, respect, and discretion with which some people have treated what is strictly a private family matter," the statement continued.

"The family also wishes to clarify that only his closest relatives have real and accurate information regarding Jorge's condition. Therefore, any version, statement, or information that does not come directly from the family and its official channels should not be considered valid or truthful," the statement added.

Messi's family asked everyone for "responsibility, prudence, and humanity".

"A person's health and the peace of mind of those around them should not be the subject of speculation or irresponsible media interest. We sincerely appreciate the expressions of affection, respect, and concern we have received, and we ask that Jorge's privacy, confidentiality, and intimacy--as well as that of his entire family--be respected throughout this process. Any relevant updates will be communicated in due course by the family and through the appropriate channels. Thank you for your understanding," said the statement cited by 433.

With his first-ever FIFA World Cup hat-trick on the day (June 16) when he had made his FIFA WC debut 20 years back, Messi tied with Miroslav Klose (16) for the joint-most goals in FIFA World Cup goals. He also earned his 200th cap for Argentina.

Argentina will now next play Austria on June 22 in Texas.

'We Were Told Not To Take Sunny-Dimple's Pics Together,' Reveals Paparazzo

Veteran paparazzo Ramakant Munde shared inside details of how photographers accessed celebrities before paparazzi culture and social media began.

Recalling an unwritten rule from that era, Munde said they were told not to photograph Dimple Kapadia and Sunny Deol together. Dimple Kapadia and Sunny Deol were rumoured to be in a relationship, though they never acknowledged it publicly.

"Sometimes they would be together on a film set, at an event, or during a function. But they didn't like getting photographed together. Everyone in the media knew this," Ramakant Munde told Hindi Rush.

Munde recalled that instructions would come whenever the two were present at the same location.

"There was a message among photographers that if they were together, we shouldn't take pictures. Usually someone from their team would come and tell us, or there would be a signal indicating that photographs were not wanted," he said.

In an era before omnipresent paparazzi and social media, there was hardly anything about celebrities that remained hidden from the public.

Talking about the changing media landscape, Munde commented, "There wasn't that kind of demand. What sold in those days were beautiful photographs — good costumes, jewellery, makeup and glamorous looks. Publishers preferred aesthetically pleasing pictures."

"Today, people are interested in every aspect of a celebrity's personal life. But at that time, photographs of who was meeting whom didn't have the same value," he added.

Sunny Deol and Dimple Kapadia: Relationship rumours

Back in 2017, a viral video showed Dimple and Sunny holidaying in London; in the clip they were seen holding hands, which sparked chatter on X.

In 2023, Dimple Kapadia watched Gadar in theatres. She hid her long hair under a cap and posed for the paparazzi.

Dimple Kapadia and Sunny Deol co-starred in films such as Manzil Manzil, Arjun, Aag Ka Gola and Narasimha.

Several media reports have claimed that Sunny Deol, despite being married, treated Dimple Kapadia as a wife and was a factor in the actress' separation from the late actor Rajesh Khanna. However, neither of them ever acknowledged the rumoured romance.

Dimple Kapadia married superstar Rajesh Khanna in 1973, a few months before the release of her debut film Bobby. Their first child, daughter Twinkle Khanna, was born in 1974 and Rinke was born in 1977. The couple separated in 1984 but never divorced.

Sunny Deol is married to Pooja Deol and is the father of two sons — Karan and Rajveer.
