In a rather male centric industry dominated by stars and super stars, rarely do we find female super stars who take a film completely on their shoulders.
There was a time when Vijaya Shanthi alone gave tough stand to star heroes and we missed such courageous ladies off late.
Nevertheless, Nayanatara balanced a similar act in Kollywood while Tollywood is now slowly witnessing the same in the form of Samanta.
As per inner industry buzz, the positive Box Office result for Oh Baby offered a new impetus for Akkineni lady to think more positively and encourage woman oriented scripts.
Fact is that, Sam had more hopes on U Turn. Though it opened to good reviews, same wasn't translated to currency.
Now that Oh Baby is enjoying a commercial run along with critic ratings, the talented lady is on cloud nine.
Instead of relying on beaten scripts viz. thriller and horror genres, Sam did a right thing by wisely picking up Oh Baby which had more chances to connect with youth and families.
Couple of more such hits under belt, Samanta will be a true contender for Tollywood's new Super Star title.
Hope, she is listening.
