What Samantha said

During the rapid fire round when Varun Dhawan asked Samantha Ruth Prabhu, ‘What’s the most ridiculous amount of money you’ve spent of something completely useless?’ In response, Samantha instantly said, “My ex’s expensive gifts.” Varun further questioned, “Which is how much?” Samantha giggled and said, “Quite a bit! Okay, move on!”

Samantha also refused to give a name when Varun asked the next question, where she had to name the last person she texted and read the same message out loud.

More details
