Samantha
Ruth
Prabhu-starrer
Kushi's
second
single
'Aradhya'
was
released
on
July
12.
The
song
from
Shiva
Nirvana
directorial
features
its
lead
pair
Vijay
Deverakonda
and
Samantha
in
montage
shots.
A
still
from
the
lyrical
video
where
Vijay
Deverakonda
relaxes
her
leg
on
Samantha,
caused
quite
an
unexpected
stir
on
Twitter
and
other
social
media
handles
on
July
13.
Fans
of
superstar
Mahesh
Babu
hit
back
at
Samantha
for
the
latter's
'regressive'
comments
on
Mahesh's
'1
Nenokkadine'
poster
featuring
Kriti
Sanon.
Back
when
Pushpa
fame
Sukumar's
'1
Nenokkadine'
released,
a
promotional
poster
featuring
Adipurush
actress
Kriti
Sanon
crawling
behind
Mahesh
Babu
by
the
beach,
upset
Samantha.
By
then,
Samantha
had
already
worked
with
Mahesh
Babu,
in
fact,
in
her
second
film
in
the
Telugu
industry.
Having
known
Mahesh
Babu
and
growing
to
be
one
of
the
successful
female
leads
in
Tollywood,
Samantha
reacted
to
the
post
by
saying,
"Saw
a
poster
of
a
yet-to-be-released
Telugu
film.
Not
only
is
it
deeply
regressive,
but
its
point
is
actually
that
it
is
deeply
regressive,
(sic)"
The
comment
and
post
went
viral
within
no
time
and
drew
the
attention
of
Mahesh
Babu
as
well
as
the
film's
director
Sukumar.
Mahesh
Babu
also
reacted
to
the
tweet
and
said,
"Samantha
knows
me
and
my
wife
Namrata.
If
she
found
anything
regressive
about
the
poster
she
could
have
checked
with
me
first.
Instead,
she
went
and
posted
her
views
online.
She
shouldn't
have
done
that.
At
least
she
could
have
tried
to
speak
to
us."
Now,
from
the
lyric
video
of
Vijay
Deverakonda-starrer
'Kushi,'
a
still
where
Vijay
Deverakonda
was
seen
stretching
his
legs
on
Samantha
by
the
sofa
caught
the
attention
of
the
netizens.
They
brought
back
her
'regressive'
post
and
wrote,
'No
Hate
But
Sorry
Samantha
Karma
Hits
Back.'
Fans
of
both
actors
are
involved
in
several
arguments
under
the
comment
section
and
have
been
sharing
their
views.
