Telugu cinema sensation Samantha Ruth Prabhu recently shared a candid confession about her early days in the film industry. During a visit to the SV Group of Institutions in Nellore, the actress-turned-producer opened up about how she now perceives her initial acting efforts with a sense of discomfort and self-consciousness.
Reflecting on her performances in her debut film Ye Maaya Chesave and the Tamil drama Baana Kaathadi, both released in 2010, Samantha remarked that she finds it hard to watch those early roles without cringing. “If I watch my first two movies now, I feel embarrassed and wonder why I gave such a horrible performance.”she admitted, laughing at her own inexperience.
Now stepping into the shoes of a producer for the very first time, Samantha expressed her admiration for the cast of her maiden production, titled Subham. Speaking with pride, she said, “Witnessing these young, fresh faces make their first mark on screen brings me immense joy. I feel a genuine sense of fulfillment and pride watching them.”
Ye Maaya Chesave, helmed by director Gautham Vasudev Menon, featured Samantha alongside her former spouse, Naga Chaitanya. The romantic drama was met with favorable reviews from critics and turned out to be a box-office hit, grossing Rs 30 crore on a production budget of Rs 10 crore.
After spending over a decade and a half in front of the camera, Samantha has now ventured behind the scenes by founding her own production house, Tralala Moving Pictures. Subham, the company’s first feature film, is slated for a theatrical release on May 9. Directed by Praveen Kandregula, best known for Cinema Bandi, the film boasts a cast of newcomers including Harshith Reddy, Gavireddy Srinivas, Charan Peri, Shriya Kontham, Shravani Lakshmi, Shalini Kondepudi, and Vamshidhar Goud.
In terms of upcoming projects, Samantha will next be seen in a mystical fantasy drama titled Brahmand, directed by Rahi Anil Barve, acclaimed for his work in Tumbbad. The film is being produced by the celebrated filmmaker duo Raj & DK, known for their distinct storytelling and genre-defying narratives.
