Samantha Ruth Prabhu set the dance floor on fire when she featured in Allu Arjun’s Pushpa: The Rise with the song ‘Oo Antava’. In a recent interview, Samantha opened up about shooting the track when she revealed that it was very ‘uncomfortable’ for her as an actor. She recalled that her legs were shivering while filming the song and went on to say that it was ‘very difficult’.

“I have always operated from a space of ‘I’m not good enough, I don’t feel pretty, I don’t look like the other girls.’ So for me, it was a huge challenge. It was actually the first shot of “Oo Antava”… I was shaking from fear because sexy is not my thing. It’s not my thing. But how I’ve grown both as an actor and as a person is I’ve always made sure that I put myself in the most uncomfortable, unforgiving, very difficult circumstances,” Samantha said during the India Today Conclave.

The actress admitted that she did not feel very confident but decided to do Oo Antava because she wanted to explore something new. “I think that, for me, it was the lyrics. It was a challenge. And I think we can move past judging women for wanting to look good. We can do everything. We can look good,” she said.

However, when asked if she would do a dance number again in the future, Samantha made it clear that she would never do it. “No, I don’t see the challenge in it anymore,” she said.

Meanwhile, the shooting for Pushpa 2: The Rule is currently underway. The film, which stars Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna in the lead, will hit theatres on August 15 this year.

On the other hand, Samantha was last seen in Kushi. The romantic drama also starred Vijay Deverakonda in the lead. Next, Samantha will be seen in the Indian version of Citadel which also stars Varun Dhawan and is helmed by Raj and DK.
