Though she is a star in her own right in the Telugu and Tamil industry, people across the country woke up to the acting prowess of Samantha Prabhu only recently, thanks to the second season of The Family Man. The actor admits it is heartening to gain pan-India recognition. “Not only fans from north India, but a lot of my friends who haven’t watched my films, have thoroughly enjoyed The Family Man 2. These people are watching my performance for the first time. It’s every actor’s dream to reach out to the masses. I am blessed that it not only happened to me, but also happened [at a time] when theatres were shut,” she beams.
