Samantha Ruth Prabhu is currently one of India's leading and highest-paid actors, not just in the south. Ever since the emergence of the "pan-India" trend, the South film industry has been booming, and in fact, it has been doing better than Hindi films at the box office. The actress, who is currently gearing up for her much-awaited film Shaakuntalam recently revealed that there was a time when she and other actors from the south were treated disrespectfully.
Samantha Ruth Prabhu praised the progress that the South industry has made in recent years in an interview with Gulte, but she also stated that there was a period when artists from the South were not treated with respect. "It's absolutely wonderful," she exclaimed. Sometimes we couldn't get clothes from designers because they were like, 'Who are you?' South actor? "What do you mean, South?" "We've come a long way from there, haven't we?" the actress said. This inclusiveness is incredible, and we've finally arrived."
Samantha, whose upcoming film 'Shaakuntalam' has over 3,000 costumes for the actors, supporting cast and junior artists are made by designer Neeta Lulla.
