South Indian star Samantha’s latest web series, Honey Bunny, began streaming on Amazon Prime on the 7th of this month, receiving a mix of responses—ranging from positive reviews to lukewarm feedback in some places. Samantha’s performance in the action scenes has garnered praise, with viewers commenting that her intensity and dedication exceeded expectations. Directed by Raj & DK, the series stars Varun Dhawan in the lead role alongside Samantha, who has been busy promoting Honey Bunny through various interviews.
An interesting detail currently making waves is Samantha’s remuneration for her role in the series. Reportedly, she was paid a substantial ₹10 crore, whereas Varun Dhawan received ₹8 crore. Industry insiders believe Samantha commanded a higher fee due to her strong overseas market, where she can independently draw a collection of around one million dollars. Her vast international fanbase contributed to the decision to pay her a higher amount. Netizens have also noted that Samantha’s fee surpassed that of her ex-husband, Naga Chaitanya, sparking playful speculation online that she has “outpaced” him in earnings through this series.
The production was demanding on Samantha, particularly the physically intense action scenes. Due to her myositis condition, she reportedly sustained injuries and at times had to use oxygen masks and cylinders on set. Her commitment to finishing the project, despite these challenges, has been widely appreciated by her fans and colleagues alike. Her dedication is also one of the reasons she received such a high salary.
In light of her successful collaboration, the directors Raj & DK are considering casting Samantha in another series. However, it’s unclear if she will take on the project, as she has previously stated she would not do item songs or overly bold scenes, a sentiment reportedly echoed by her close associates.
