She played the insecure Madhuravani who has a stutter and falls in love with her photographer colleague Vijay (Vijay Deverakonda). However, it was Samantha's role as journalist Madhuravani which linked the past and the present.
Mahanati (2018): The Nag Ashwin biopic on actor Savithri belonged to Keerthy Suresh, who played the lead. She made it clear once and for all that she was here to stay and wasn't going to restrict herself from playing any kind of role just because of her marital status. The rural drama directed by Sukumar had Samantha turning in a spunky performance opposite Ram Charan. In Rangasthalam, Samantha broke these norms with her character Ramalakshmi. Ideally, a woman actor's personal life shouldn't matter to the audience, but for long, producers and directors have assumed that the audience will not accept a married woman actor playing glamorous roles and romancing other men. Rangasthalam (2018): A lot was riding on this film which was Samantha's first release after her wedding with Naga Chaitanya.
Samantha fit right into this Vikram Kumar directorial, and to this date, Manam has a special place in the hearts of Telugu audiences. This film, like Eega, had a wacky premise - it was all about rebirths and reunions, and had plenty of references to earlier films in which the Akkinenis had acted. She played the dual roles of Krishna Veni and Priya.
Samantha, who wasn't married to Naga Chaitanya in real life as yet, was cast opposite him. Manam (2014): The big fat Akkineni film was Nageswara Rao's last appearance on screen, and featured three generations of the family.
