Having established herself well in the Telugu and Tamil film industries, Samantha Ruth Prabhu is one actress who's seen her stocks rise high in the Hindi film industry as well in recent times.
This is obviously because of her stellar performance in the Prime Video TV series The Family Man, alongside Manoj Bajpayee.
Samantha played the role of Raji in the second season of the hit television series, with her acting really striking a chord with many fans.
The actress has since then been in demand and is reported to have had a lot of offers from Hindi cinema.
However, for all her talent and on-screen persona, one can only wonder why Samantha has kept a distance from Bollywood.
Well, it looks like the actress herself is finally ready to answer just that.
In an interview with ETimes, Samantha revealed that the reason why she's not done Bollywood films till now is basically that she wanted to have a proper footing in the South.
"I was finding my footing in the South and gained confidence in my work only in the last two years. I was still making bad choices and not doing the kind of work that satisfied me," said Samantha.
However, she says that she's now ready to accept newer challenges, with Bollywood definitely looking to be one of them.
"Things changed a great deal in the last two years, and now, I am confident about accepting challenges. I don't try everything and then see what works. I usually take time to perfect something before moving on to another challenge. That's why it has taken me this long to get this far." said Samantha.
She also admits that right now is probably the best time for an artist looking to switch across to a different film industry because of the language barrier getting thinner and thinner.
"I think it is a great time to be an artist. The lines are blurring, and the opportunities are a lot more. I love the place we are in now, which is so encouraging for artists from other industries." she said.
And as per reports, she might just make her Bollywood debut soon, with it being said that she could be starring in a Taapsee Pannu-produced film in 2022.
What do you think? Are you excited to see Samantha make her Bollywood debut?
