I Felt Intense Pressure To 'Make It' In Life: Samantha

As we know, star actress Samantha has started her own podcast named 'Take 20' and she is discussing various life topics. After talking about her health, Sam opened up her fitness and the pressure she faced in her childhood.

She said, “Growing up, I didn't have a luxurious childhood, so success was my focus from an early age. I always felt intense pressure to 'Make It' in life. Constantly fed with the notion that I wasn't good enough, so that became an intense motivation for me to succeed at any cost.”

Sam added, “It is a lot of hard work and pressure, especially when you're constantly in the spotlight and being judged. I started in this industry when I was just 22-23 years old, and some girls start even younger. We don't come into this knowing everything; we let others dictate and define us,”

Talking about her journey, she explained, “I've been letting others define me since childhood, creating a pattern where I worked tirelessly to please and seek approval from others. Eventually, my own thoughts, feelings, and desires became insignificant. When I achieved success, I feared losing it, immediately searching for the next big accomplishment. So, I believe I've been in fight or flight mode throughout my career.”

Samantha will soon be seen in a web series alongside Varun Dhawan. Raj & DK made this series.
