In his earlier interview, Chittibabu had said that Samantha was using cheap tactics to promote her movies. He had also mentioned that he was surprised to see her playing the lead role in Shaakuntalam.
After his statement, Samantha had taken to her Instagram stories and stated that she was searching “How do people have hair growing from ears” on Google and the internet revealed that it happens because of increased testosterone. Many people speculated that it was a jibe at Chittibabu’s statement.
Responding to Samantha’s jibe, Chittibabu said in a new interview, “She has noticed my ear hair and hair grows in many other parts of my body and I have no objection to study and report on it.”
He also clarified his earlier statement about Samantha and said that all he meant was the actress was not suitable to play young characters anymore. She said that Samantha is not 18-20 years old, which doesn’t make her a suitable choice for the role of Shakuntala. He further added that her glamorous days are over and it’s time to move on to supporting roles. He also mentioned that the actress is not ready to accept the truth.
On the work front, Samantha will be next seen in an upcoming romantic film Kushi opposite Vijay Deverakonda and in the action thriller web series Citadel alongside Varun Dhawan.
