Actress Samantha may not have made her mark in Kollywood yet, but the petite lass has two of K’town’s most anticipated films in her kitty. The buzz created by Neethane En Ponvasantham and Kadal indicates the perfect setting for Samantha to cash in and change her fortunes. Speaking to DC, where she is currently shooting for Autonagar Surya opposite Naga Chaitanya, Samantha couldn’t be more ready for a dream innings in tinsel town.
The actress says, “I had a ‘dream debut’ in Tollywood and received good offers there. My films have done well and I’m very blessed with the love, affection and opportunities I have received there.” Samantha acknowledges, however, that she hasn’t met with the same success in Kollywood. “My first two films in Tamil didn’t do too well. But I hope to get that elusive break here soon.” And, why won’t she? Now, that she is set to star in a Mani Ratnam movie. “I auditioned for the role in Kadal and only God knows how many people auditioned for it too! I can’t wait for the shooting, which has been delayed by the strike. Anybody would love to work with Mr Mani Ratnam,” she says.
We will, however, see Samantha in Neethane En Ponvasantham before Kadal. “The film is in its last stages and it has been quote a challenge,” concedes Samantha, who had to shoot for the trilingual simultaneously. “I’ve invested quite a bit into the film and I hope the effort pays off,” she says. While the Tamil version stars Jiiva in the lead, Samantha will be seen opposite Nani and Aditya Roy Kapoor in the Telugu and Hindi versions respectively.
