Samantha: Glamour Wont’ Work For Ever

SAMANTHA'S REDUCED ACCEPTABILITY

Samantha: Glamour Wont’ Work For Ever

Samantha is at present one of the top heroines in Telugu & Tamil movies. Her acceptability is found to be reducing.

Chennai: Samantha started her movie career with Ye Maya Chesave in the year 2010 and from then she has been seen as a success star. Her subsequent movies in Tamil & Telugu recorded good response at the box office.

The subsequent hits included Brundavanam (with Tarak) in 2010, Dookudu (with Mahesh Babu) in 2011 & Eega (with Nani) in 2012 which increased her popularity in Tollywood. 2013 gave her good hits like Seethamma Vakitla Sirimalle Chettu(multi-starrer having Venkatesh & Mahesh Babu) & Attarintiki Daaredi (blockbuster with Pawan Kalyan). All this success is one side of her career in Tollywod.

Tarak’s Ramayya Vastavayya (2013 movie) having Samantha & Shruti Hasan did not do well at the box office. The year 2014 gave her good start with ‘Manam’ but the subsequent movie Autonagar Surya received average talk. Presently Samantha is the heroine (along with Praneetha) in Tarak’s Rabhasa releasing on 29th August 2014 and the movie is expected to perform better at the box office.

During the past one year or so, another glamour queen from south Tamanna is not available for movie makers as she concentrated more on Bollywood. Tamanna’s absence gave more opportunities for Samantha. To cash the opportunities, Samantha also tried to increase her popularity. In many of her movies we can see increased dosage of her glamour.

Despite the fact of increased glamour from Samantha, some of her movies did not fare well at box office. Her recent release Sikander (Tamil movie Anjaan with Suriya) was a disaster. It may due to the reason that the glamour of Samantha is not able to do the required magic to attract the audience to the theatres.

On the other hand, Tamanna is once again available for Tollywood movie makers. She grabbed an opportunity for an item song in Samantha starrer Alludu Sreenu. She has been able to impress the producers of the movie that she got full length role in the subsequent movie (that started formal shooting recently). The new movie is coming under the direction of Boyapati Sreenu (Simha, Legend fame). Tamanna has been able to grab opportunity to cast opposite Mahesh Babu in Aagadu (scheduled for release next month) and is presently busy shooting SS Rajamouli’s mega movie Bahubali.

Samantha has been able to rule the Tollywood for the last one year but with her dwindled acceptability her image as ‘success heroine’ is fading out. Her reported differences with prince Mahesh also seem to be one of the reasons for her ‘not so attractive’ performance in her career. Tamanna, on the other hand, is a good marketer of herself and she is full praise for her co star Mahesh and thereby attracting support of Mahesh fans.

Presently Samantha is busy with Katthi (Tamil movie) for the present year and she is confirmed for 2 Tamil & 1 Telugu movies for the next year.
