I have so much admiration for your talent, resilience, and strength,” Alia said, as Samantha’s eyes filled with tears. “It’s not easy to be a woman in a man’s world. But you have surpassed gender. You stand tall on your two feet, with your talent and strong kicks, as an example for everyone.”
Bhatt also thanked the ‘Yasoda’ star for promptly agreeing to attend the event when she messaged her. She also requested filmmaker Trivikram Srinivas to direct them both in a movie. “They say, actresses usually compete with each other, but there’s no such thing.
