Samantha Akkineni was heavily trolled on the social media platforms after she dropped her last name and choose to go by just S. The name change gave chances to rumours that not all is well between the actress and her husband, Naga Chaitanya.
In a recent interview, Samantha spoke about the controversies that are surrounding her. “Even with trolling for The Family Man or this, I don’t react to them. That is how I have always been. I don’t react to this kind of noise and I don’t intend on doing so as well,” she said.
She said that everybody wanted her to react to The Family Man issue. There were like 65000 tweets hammering her. “I just thought no. I will speak when I have to speak and when I feel like saying something. I will not be bulldozed into saying something,” she continued.
The Family Man 2. which started Samantha as Raji, was mired in controversy as many alleged that web series is trying to portray Tamil people in a negative light. Recently, the actress bagged her first award for her Bollywood and OTT debut — the Best Performance Female award at Indian Film Festival of Melbourne.
