Samantha Akkineni & Sharwanand's Prayers at TirumalaBoth Samantha and her producer Dil Raju have the habit of visiting Tirumala for offering prayers before and after the release of their respective new movies. After critical reception of ‘Jaanu’, once again Samantha went to Tirumala to offer prayers to Lord Balaji. It’s known that she went to Tirumala before release, as well.

Sam was seen taking the footpath and climbing the steps like she has done earlier before and after the release of her movies. This time, Dil Raju accompanied her all through the footpath and also darshan. Of course, Sharwanand was also there with her to offer the prayers.

The movie received critical appreciation and even passed the test of being the Telugu remake of a classic movie. That’s very rare, indeed. However, ‘Jaanu’ started slowly and also going slow at the box-office, so far.

Such movies do get appreciation and they tend to be dull at the box-office as sensible films like this do not cater to the tastes of B and C centre’ audiences.
