Samantha Akkineni to play the female lead in Telugu remake of the Kannada romantic drama Dia?

Southern beauty Samantha Akkineni has been an all-time favourite of filmmakers for reasons that are quite obvious. The actress was last seen in the Telugu movie Jaanu co-starring Sharwanand. If media reports are to be believed, the gorgeous diva is likely to feature in a remake version of the Kannada movie Dia. She is reportedly impressed by the romantic drama starring Pruthvi Ambaar, Dheekshith, and Kushee in the lead roles. As per reports, a Telugu producer has approached the actress for the same.

So, if the reports come out to be true, Samantha Akkineni will be portraying the female lead in the Telugu version of the movie helmed by K.S. Ashoka. However, there are further speculations that the Oh! Baby actress might not act in the movie herself but will bankroll it. The Eega actress has previously acted in multiple remakes so it won’t be something new for her if she gives a nod to this new project too.
