Why’s Samantha Putting All Rules Aside?
Gone are the days when the PR team of Samantha Ruth Prabhu hugely controlled what to ask at press meets, what to ask at interviews and how many lucky folks would get the interviews of the actress.

During the times of promoting her movies like Shaakuntalam, the actress created a huge scene by giving selective interviews to people. Guess what’s happening now.
She never gave interviews to all the media folks and never openly spoke about certain things. But now, she and her team of Maa Inti Bangaram gave more than 50 interviews so far to websites, TV channels, YouTube channels and other platforms too. Looks like Samantha needs Maa Inti Bangaram to succeed badly for her own sake. As the film is hitting cinemas on June 19th, the actress wants to regain her stardom at the Telugu box office.
Though Samantha is still popular as a heroine, even though she’s close to 40 years of age, the actress never clicked as a solo lead at the box office. That needs lots of young generations to follow her, and that’s the real problem. The teens who were her fans almost a decade ago when she peaked in Telugu cinema have all now got busy with jobs and families. And the young teen audience doesn’t know much about her, as her film count came down after she got married for the first time back in 2021.
As the Tamil beauty is promoting her film big time, all this should get converted into footfalls on Day 1, and the good talk that emerges from the theatre on the first day first show will take care of the rest.
