As per reports, for the first time, IFFI will feature screenings and masterclasses by members who have made a big splash on OTT platforms. As part of this initiative, Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK, the creators of The Family Man, took up a masterclass session.

Samantha made her digital debut with The Family Man. In the show, she played a character called Raji, a Sri Lankan rebel who joins forces with her comrades on a mission in Chennai. 

During an interaction, Samantha shared what drove her to essay the role of Raji. She said, “As an actor, I always want to push my boundaries and explore unfamiliar emotions. Female actors tend to get unidimensional characters and there is this fear of your performance becoming repetitive – which can happen if you choose roles that are in a familiar emotional space. However, with Raji it was very different and exciting. The role allowed me to explore a new dimension, something that had never been offered to me before. The actor in me could not refuse this challenge.”
