That is how I have always been. I don’t react to this kind of noise and I don’t intend on doing so as well,” she mentioned, including how everybody prodded her to reply. “Everybody wanted me to react to The Family Man issue. There were like 65000 tweets hammering me. I just thought no. I will speak when I have to speak and when I feel like saying something. I will not be bulldozed into saying something,” she continued.

Thankyouuu @rajanddk for being able to see beyond the ‘cute girl’ image that many couldn’t look past .. as an actor I dreamed of being given such an opportunity.. the chance to play a layered and intense role . #Raji forced me to dig deep .. and I am beyond happy today to receive a certificate of approval for the performance,” wrote Samantha as she expressed her gratitude for successful the award.
After Samantha’s Bollywood debut, followers are trying ahead to Chaitanya’s debut within the Hindi movie trade. The actor shall be seen in Aamir Khan’s Laal Singh Chaddha. When Samantha was requested if she gave any type of recommendation to Chaitanya earlier than his Bollywood debut, the Super Deluxe actor laughed and mentioned, “Me and advice? Do I know how to navigate Bollywood? That’s a good one.”
She added, “No, I am not giving anybody any advice but myself. But I think he had a blast and he’s in complete awe of Aamir and how can anyone not be in awe of him. So, I am extremely happy for him and his experience.”
On a concluding notice, Samantha expressed that she is open to doing any type of difficult roles in any language. “Honestly, I have been a little scared of a new industry which is very alien to me. Like I said, I am trying to knock off insecurities and finding my footing in the South, finding a rhythm back home. So for me, to step into a completely new surrounding and atmosphere was scary, but just seeing the kind of appreciation I have received for The Family Man from the north has given me courage to accept new challenges whatever the language be, because I am still the hungry actor going after the next big challenge. So, now I am open to wherever the challenge comes from.”
