A fan commented on the ‘Eega reunion’ video with a heart eyes emoji, while others left heart emojis to express their love for the couple. For the uninitiated, Nani and Samantha starred together in SS Rajamouli’s 2012 film ‘Eega’ and in Gautham Vasudev Menon’s ‘Yeto Vellipoindi Manasu’, which released the same year.
What are you doing in Mumbai?
Nani is in Mumbai to promote his upcoming film Saripodhaa Sanivaaram, directed by Vivek Athreya. The film will release on August 29 and stars Priyanka Mohan and SJ Suryah in lead roles. The film tells the story of a man who suffers from anger outbursts and, because of a promise he made to his mother, decides to channel his anger into justice only on Saturdays.
Samantha is in Mumbai for the World Pickleball League. She is now the owner of the Chennai franchise. She recently shared the news on Instagram: “Starting a pickleball team wasn’t just a decision; it was a belief. A nod to my younger self and a commitment to every little girl who was told she couldn’t do this. We are here to prove that we absolutely can.”
