Samyuktha Menon is set to make her mark in her first lead role, joining the ranks of powerhouse actresses like Anushka Shetty, Keerthy Suresh, Rashmika Mandanna, and Kajal Aggarwal, who have all successfully carried female-centric films. However, Samyukta prefers not to label her new project as such.
"It's a spectacular story, but I wonder why we need to focus on labels," she shares. "I didn't have much time to listen to the script, but once I did, I couldn't say no. Every scene was so well-written."
This latest venture marks a significant step for the rising star, already making waves in Tollywood with successful films like Virupaksha, Sir, and Bimbisara. She is also set to appear alongside Sharwanand in an upcoming film, and the magnum opus Swayambhu.
A source close to the actress reveals, "Coming from Mollywood, where actresses prioritize roles with substance, Samyuktha is expanding her market with this new film." Following in the footsteps of successful Malayalam actresses like Nithya Menen, Anupama Parameswaran, and Keerthy Suresh, who have made successful transitions to Telugu cinema, Samyuktha is forging her own path.
The source concludes, "While Anupama and Anu Emmanuel are still strong contenders, Samyukta is giving them stiff competition with her choice of roles and her growing list of hits."
This new film, with its powerful script and Samyukta's dedication to her craft, is sure to be a captivating watch.
