Glam gal Samantha Akkineni is one of the stylish icons of the South Indian film industry with a massive list of followers on social media platforms. Sam’s eye-grabbing style statements have won millions of hearts. The stunner never fails to grab attention with her unconventional looks, but recently she was seen in a rare new avatar in which probably no one has ever seen her.

Samantha was seen accompanied by her close friend Ramya Subramanian on a trip to Tirupati temple where she climbed 3,500 steps to seek blessings of Lord Balaji. Actress Ramya shared a couple of photos on her Instagram.

She was later spotted at Hyderabad airport on her return from Tirupati temple in a yellow desi outfit without makeup. Surprisingly, she was seen with a bindi on the forehead and a dash of sindoor (vermillion). Of course, it was for the first time that people saw Sam in such a look (off-screen).

On the work front, Sam will be next seen in Janu in which she will be sharing screen space with Sharwanand. Janu is the Telugu remake of Tamil movie 96 which originally featured Vijay Sethupathi and Trisha Krishnan in the lead roles.
