Samantha speaks out
Samantha, a commerce graduate from a Telugu-Malayalee family,is making her screen debut with Naga Chaitanya's Yemaya Chesave (Telugu version of Gautham Menon's Tamil film Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa starring Simbu and Trisha).
When asked about the language barrier, the pretty lass in an interview to a leading English daily said, “We speak Tamil and English at home, so Telugu is alien to me. I had great difficulty in mugging up the dialogues, but now, I can speak a few words.”
About her upcoming Tamil venture Baana Kaathadi opposite Atharva, son of actor Murali, the excited actress says, “It’s a lovely role. I had signed this film first, but my Telugu film became my launchpad. For me, language doesn’t matter; I’m interested in meaty roles.”
When asked about the comparison with her Tamil counterpart Trisha, she chirps, “I think Trisha is extremely talented and experienced. And she’s also one of my favourite actresses. I simply followeddirector Gautham Menon's instructions when I did the film. I wasn’t even trying to outdo a senior like Trisha.”
