Actor Samantha says that she was getting out of panic on the set of ‘Pushpa’ song ‘O Antava’ as she had not done anything before. In an interview recently, he once again opened his experience of shooting the song in front of ‘500 junior artists’. The 38-year-old also said that she was surprised to perform a dance number as people often did not think of her to look ‘really hot’ when she was popular for her ‘Girl-Next-Dore’ roles.

Samantha told Galta Plus: “As much as people like to think that I do things to make statements for other people, I do it to challenge myself. Throughout my life, I have never considered myself a good, hot woman. I think ‘Or Antava’ was an opportunity for me to see if I can fake and pull it.”

He said that he took that dance number as a ‘challenge’ with Allu Arjun. “I had never done this before. So it was a challenge to myself honestly, and I was going to do it only once because I had accepted it as just a challenge,” she said.

Samantha explained, “One who thinks of me for a special song, and also, from which I had to look really hot? I was always cute, bubbly, girl – Next -Dore.

The actor further shared that he saw it as an opportunity and immediately caught it even when he was very nervous about it. “The people around me said, not at all. I was like this, I loved the song, I felt that no one had presented me before, and I had seen it as an opportunity. I was shaking in front of 500 junior artists before the first shot. I was very nervous,” she concluded.

Samantha danced out his heart, looked sensual, and performed well with Allu Arjun’s Pushpa. It was at the top of the lists of chartbusters everywhere that year, and one of the most talked dance numbers in a Pan-India film.
