‘Ye Maya Chesave’ turns out to be first ever hit for both Naga Chaitanya and Samantha who have done a couple of films earlier. When the 50 days run of that film is celebrated, late Akkineni Nageswara Rao has attended as a guest.
We hear that ANR has appreciated newcomer Samantha Ruth Prabhu in private, at that function. At that time ANR has reportedly said to Samantha, “I’ll give 51% to your acting and 49% to Naga Chaitanya’s acting skills”. Not stopping there, the late legendary actor also showered another stunning compliment at the very beginning stage of Samantha’s career in Tollywood.
“Samantha has soft and lighter skin like a Savitri. We could notice her expressions not just in eyes, but also in her skin” said ANR, to a group of listeners including Samantha, Nagarjuna, and Chay. Other day while promoting Raju Gari Gadhi2 post the release, the mama and kodalu recalled that talk of ANR once again, explaining how the first ever Akkineni praised Sam’s acting skills.
Speaking about it, Samantha further said, “I never pay heed to any compliments, but this one by ANR garu will live with me forever”.
