Samantha Ruth Prabhu cries as she thanks Telugu fans for supporting her in ‘every mistake I made'
Samantha Ruth Prabhu thanks Telugu community in US for their support
Samantha wondered why it took her 15 years to be on that stage to thank the Telugu community. "I never got the chance to thank you. You made me your own from my very first film. You have only given me love. I can't believe it has taken me 15 years to come here and say thank you (bows her head). Although it's been 15 years, I think I have come here at an important stage of my career. I am not even surprised that the people who loved and appreciated Subham (2025) the most were the Telugu community of North America. I am truly grateful. I wasn't even surprised."
Samantha thanks them for not letting go, weeps
The actor thanked her fans for being with her throughout her journey and never letting go of her. "Every step I took, every mistake I made, you still didn't let go of me. I am truly appreciative of that. Wherever I go, whatever I do and whichever industry I work in, the first thought which comes to my mind before making any decision is, 'Will the Telugu audiences be proud of me or not?' Thank you for supporting me through this long journey. You gave me an identity, a home and a sense of belonging. I truly mean that from the bottom of my heart," she added. As she concluded her speech, an emotional Samantha started crying.

Kingdom' Starring Vijay Devarakonda to Release Without Hindi Theatrical Version
Telugu cinema news: Vijay Deverakonda's Kingdom has finally been announced. The film starring Bhagyashri and directed by Gowtam Tannanuri is set to be released in Telugu, Tamil and Telugu cinemas on 31st July 2025. Here are the Telugu Movies Updates which is makers have not announced a release date for the Hindi version, despite having released a teaser in Hindi four months earlier. The team may have decided to skip a theatrical release in Hindi, and instead release Saamraajya directly on Netflix. According to reports, Netflix originally had a different agreement with the producers. Due to the multiple delays, Netflix reportedly asked the team to release it in theaters as soon as they could. It wouldn't make sense to OTT release dates the Hindi version of the film without the support of major multiplex chains, and the eight-week rule between a theatrical and OTT updates release would complicate matters. The team has reportedly decided to bypass a theatrical release of the Hindi version in favor of a direct OTT reviews. A team official explanation is still to be received. I feel the producers need to step up the promotion game to create some hype and audiences to the theaters. Keep an eye out for interesting updates about Kingdom. The release of the Telugu Movie HQ Photos has been delayed twice. The film was originally scheduled for a May 30 summer release, but was later changed to July 4. The makers blamed the delay on the increased tensions between India and Pakistan following the Pahalgam terrorist attacks of April 22nd, followed by Operation Sindoor. The release date was again pushed back.
