Samantha Ruth Prabhu once again shut up the trollers for calling her out and shaming her for kissing Ram Charan in Rangasthalam. The 2018 film, where she starred along with the south superstar Ram Charan, got to headlines with her lip-lock scene with Ram Charan. The actress got immensely trolled by the netizens, due to her marriage with Naga Chaitanya. Later, the actress opened up about it and shut her trolls upfront.

Clarifying about the same to Deccan Chronicle, Samantha said, “It is just a peck on the cheek and not a lip-lock. I know people were abusing about how I can do such scenes after my marriage.”

She added, “If married superstars do the same, will they ask such questions? Why me — because I am a female? Moreover, my family is supportive, especially my father-in-law who pooh-poohed the detractors and hence I am working comfortably on the sets.”

She also shared her views on getting slut-shamed for her bold Instagram posts, saying, “I know I would be trolled for posting a picture in a swimsuit on the beach, but do you expect me to wear a sari on the beach? I don’t post them to get attention! But who tells me what pictures I should post? Just because I am a married person, they troll me. No one needs to tell me how I should conduct my life. I don’t want to be scared. I don’t want to fall into that trap!” As quoted by Koi Moi.
