Samantha Prabhu has
powered her way to
the top at a surprising speed.
After delivering a superhit
with Dookudu in 2011, this
"lucky charm" of Tollywood
can´t be more happy about her
"super exciting 2012". "Eight of
my films are releasing this year! I
can´t be happier as I play a different
character in each of these
films," says a beaming Samantha.
Ask the actress her reaction on
being called ´Number 1´ in the South
film industry and she laughs it off.
"Everyone is called that! How
