Samantha fires on English daily

Samanta is currently the No 1 heroine of Telugu cinema committing back to back films with back to back releases even in Tamil. Greatness of Sam is she never stood under the hammer of media or producers and directors criticism. May be for the first time, media started rubbing the other side of Samanta.

Of late Sam turned as fashion icon of Tollywood and she is following all the latest trends when it comes to dressing and styles. Recently for Alludu Seenu audio launch, Samantha came in 'queen' avatar wearing a headgear.

Taking cue on her styling an Times of India (English daily) published an article stating Samantha's recent appearance at several events was copy of Bollywood likes Deepika Padukone, Sonam Kapoor and Katrina.

Deeply hurt Samantha took to her Twitter handle and slammed TOI for coming up with such story. Read below what Sam has said..

'Dear TOI wanted to clarify a few things and basically educate the so called fashionistas we have at the TOI offices. When a designer comes up with a collection they make similar pieces in a selected color palate for the season.

Nationally recognized labels if not internationally ' Have ALWAYS KEY PIECES.. A dhoti of Anamika Khanna, a cut work blouse of Arpita are not just made in a single piece for one single celeb' These are available in stores and online. styling is being able to wear a similar outfit or may be the same and putting your spin on it If I have chosen to educate myself about all these wonderful designers and decided to put in effort to style better and have fun.

I don't see it as an entertainment quotient that Times has decided to review ' National level fashion blogs and sites such as High heel pink villa , miss malini.. Whose sole purpose is to scout for fashion genius moments and fashion disasters' Has reviewed my looks multiple number of times and have praised. I don't remember Times suddenly becoming our new fashion review standard and accusing someone of copying fashion is fun. I hope a reputed institution like TOI has better standards for its front pages. Ps thanks for the publicity.''
