Tamannaah's encounter with the priest

Tamannaah's outing soon went viral as many pictures and videos flooded the internet. In one such video, the actor was praised by a priest for her dedication. In the video, the priest asked Tamannaah if she had climbed all the steps of the temple. The actor replied in affirmative which left him in awe as he said, ‘Dhanya hai devi aap. Ye sadbhavna hai (You are blessed, goddess. This is compassion)’.

Tamannaah on her casting in the film

Earlier, Tamannaah was questioned about her casting in the film when she is known as a 'milky beauty'. “You are saying milky beauty but why you looked at a milky beauty and thought that she can't be a shiva shakti? Your question has the answer in it. He (Ashok Teja) does not look at milky beauty that is to be ashamed of or feel bad about. Glamour in a woman is to be celebrated, and we women must celebrate ourselves. Then we can expect other people to celebrate us. But if we look at ourselves in a certain way then nobody can respect us,” Tamannaah said.
