I don't think Shubhra Gupta (who is one of the toughest critics to impress) ever liked any Bollywood actress as much as she liked Sam in The Family Man

This is what she wrote. Such high words of praise!! 🔥🔥🔥

"The new season also gives us the real hero of the show. Samantha Akkineni, playing a highly trained, highly skilled terror operative, is absolutely terrific. She has only one burning desire: to take revenge on the Sri Lankan army which has destroyed her family, and the place she called home. Raji’s complex character, her harrowing backstory, and her flint-eyed resolve raises the bar. At times, she feels like she can take on not just the Tiwari-Talpade combine, but anyone who tries to come in her way. She reminds you, a little, of Nandita Das’s character in Mani Ratnam’s ‘Kannathil Muthamithal’; as well as Manisha Koirala’s character in ‘Dil Se’, the latter a rebel from a different region, but with the same desire to ‘free’ her homeland. Akkineni is the real lethal weapon of this show."

Didn't know her debut film was supposed to be this. If the handle hadn't written I wouldn't have recognised Samantha at all. She looks so different now like a completely different person.

I've only seen her in Oh Baby so far and I liked Samantha. She was fun in an equally funny film.

Why? She looks similar to her current face there. But this ..😆 total face transplant. Looked like South Indian version of Diana Penty.

This was ten years ago. Most of the changes are due to ageing. She tried to fix her jaw/chin, botched it up and had a corrective surgery - at least that's how it looks.

Ditto.

I really love Sai Pallavi.  What a fabulous actor she is.   She brings so much value to every role that she's cast in.


Samantha is the Deepika Padukone of Tollywood.   Good lucks, but meh acting.
