Until a year ago, Samantha was the most sought after top actress in tollywood but the situation has changed drastically once her relationship with Naga Chaitanya was made official.

Samantha has been reiterating for the past few months that she would not bother much about remuneration if potential films and challenging roles come across. The hot lady, who used to charge around Rs 1.5 Cr earlier, has now reportedly slashed her pay to less than Rs 1 Cr.

Still, no filmmaker is considering the name of Samantha fearing that she would get married at any time and that audiences would not be interested in married actresses. The emergence of Rakul Preet Singh and younger Mallu beauties besides the rehashed Kajal Aggarwal, are also keeping Sam away from the eyesight of filmmakers.

Barring a short part in ‘Mahanati’, Samantha doesn’t have any other offer in tollywood. Even Naga Chaitanya is not keen to cast her in his films as their relationship is known to everyone. Sam actually planned to continue acting even after marriage and she must have least expected this situation.
