OMG! Samantha slays at CCA Awards; Update Pg5: Sam's reply to trolls - Page 5

Sam is neither the most talented nor the highest paid actress in South Indian cinema. What she does have, is the most aggressive PR of any South Indian actress. It's a toss-up on what she spends the most money: plastic surgery or PR?

This!

IMO, other than 'Oh Baby' where her performance was decent, her acting skills are pretty mediocre and not worthy of a mention even. Her current holier-than-thou attitude is so off putting btw.

Another platitude. Context matters. She is an instagram influencer at a public event. She makes money off her public following, making her a public person. It is sheer hypocrisy on her part to prescribe to people how and what they should respond to. What she is advocating is a form of censorship. With influence comes responsibility and consequences.

To quote Sam: "Projecting our ideals on someone else never did anyone any good" . Isn't she projecting her ideals on others? So what exactly has she been doing all this time with her MommaSaid posts? Consider that rhetorical!

Her telling off pervs is now censorship?😆

Because that's what they are: pervs. In their eyes, women who wear what they want as opposed to what society prescribes are morally corrupt.

Hence the policing.

Well... freedom of expression goes zing and zang in every direction. If the pervs have the right to be pervs, she has the right to call them out as pervs.

Except these articles, whatever I have come across, everyone is praising her. I don't see any reason to make fuss over these two random articles.

In the SamVerse, "Oh Baby" would qualify as a nepo production. Suresh Mama produced it for her. Fun fact: that movie made less money at the box office, adjusted for inflation, in normal times than her ex's movies in pandemic times.

Most celebs do get written about their dresses ! This is not new . One cannot expect 100 % praise from all quarters all the time . Out of 10 I’m sure 6 will like it and 4 won’t .

Once a person signs up for a public life they should accept the bouquets and brickbats instead of whining all the time if few people disagree.

Sam is not the first nor the last to wear a risqué dress.I think she looked pretty good tbh.

But, I wonder why Sam is being so “sensitive” about this!

Frankly she seems very insecure and feels the need to prove to naysayers that she is correct and everyone should believe and like her.

Sadly , that’s not how the real world works . One can’t make everyone like them . Fact

No, she isn't just responding to so-called pervs.

She has a very thin skin and needs to grow up. She is abusing the platform she has by projecting how she thinks society should behave, to burnish the halo she has claimed for herself. Lest we forget, this is the same person who defended the criticism of the regressiveness of her item song, by framing is as a celebration of misandry. Where she derives her authority to police, except from her hypocrisy, is a wonder. If she wants to change society, she should start with herself. That should keep her occupied for a while.
