Recently, in an exclusive interview with Bollywood Hungama Samantha Akkineni played a super fun rapid-fire and answered some really interesting questions.

 

When asked what was the most challenging scene for her in The Family Man 2 Akkineni said, "Doing the first scene in Hindi with Manoj Sir. The first scene with him was the police station scene and my hands were shivering because I'm so in awe of Manoj Sir. I've been in awe of him for the longest time."

 

She added, "Raj and DK were ruthless with me, they made me say "Hi, Hello Sir" and then shot the police station scene. Then they shot the scene with his close-ups first and I saw his fantastic performance which made me even more scared. So, I think that scene, that day, I was the most nervous on The Family Man 2. I did not know what I was doing actually. Maybe it was the fear of Manoj Sir sitting in front of me."
