Meanwhile, Mahesh Babu was also upset with Samantha’s comment. In an interview with Bollywood Life, the actor had said, “Look, 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.”
