Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Sreeleela have seemingly put to rest all speculation of tension between them following the Pushpa 2 dance song controversy. The actresses made a striking joint appearance at a recent event, where their warmth and elegance spoke louder than any rumours.
In the photo that’s now going viral, Samantha and Sreeleela can be seen exchanging smiles and holding hands, radiating camaraderie. Samantha, dressed in a black sheer gown with an intricate lace bodice and plunging neckline, looked glamorous and confident. Her hair was styled in soft waves, framing her face elegantly. Sreeleela, on the other hand, opted for a bold off-shoulder red gown that accentuated her silhouette. With her hair tied in a chic bun and minimal accessories, she exuded effortless grace. The two actresses were seen chatting and posing side-by-side, putting an end to months of conjecture.
The buzz around their alleged fallout began last year after reports emerged that Sreeleela had replaced Samantha in a special dance number for Pushpa 2. The new track, titled Kissik, drew inevitable comparisons to Samantha’s blockbuster hit Oo Antava from Pushpa: The Rise. While Oo Antava became a cultural phenomenon, the reactions to Kissik were mixed, prompting further scrutiny.
During a press conference, Sreeleela addressed the backlash and clarified her decision to be part of the film. “The song itself will justify my choice. It’s not your typical item song. There’s a strong narrative reason behind it, which will become clear when the movie releases,” she said.
Rumours also swirled around pay disparities, with claims that Samantha received Rs 5 crore for her appearance in Oo Antava, while Sreeleela got Rs 2 crore. Laughing off the speculation, Sreeleela said, “We haven’t even discussed the remuneration with the producers yet.”
