Samantha Akkineni is the leading actress down South. The Southern diva is the go-to actress and commands a stature where she can ask for changes in the script. Sam will be making her digital debut in The Family Man 2.
The Majili actress has now spoken about comparisons from Bollywood and Tollywood and hailed the former as it has more scope to take liberty in filmmaking. She said, "Bollywood has the liberty to make films for a particular kind of audience. They don't have to worry if their film will appeal to every single person. However, in the South, filmmakers have to make sure that we are expected to cater to the needs of everyone in the theatre. It becomes very restrictive. However, films in OTT platform are a lot bolder and we're able to take more risks.”
