Reports that Samantha  Akkineni will be seen in another web series with Netflix after The Family Man are patently false and baseless. A source very close to the actress says, “Right now she is off the media and just chilling at home with her husband  Nag Chaitanya and his family. There are no plans of doing another web series anytime in the near future. Sam agreed to do The Family Man because of co-directors Raj Nidimoru and DK’s persuasive powers and  because she had wanted to play the bad girl for the longest.”

Both wishes fulfilled, Samantha Akkineni has her hands full with her two Tamil feature films Kaathu Vaakula Rendu Kaadhal where she co-stars with Vijay Sethupathi and Shaakuntalam where she plays the mythological Shakuntala. Another web series? “Not for a while, and then only if it's something as challenging as The Family Man,” says a source close to the actress.

In an exclusive interview with SpotboyE, Manoj Bajpayee had showered immense praise on Samantha. He said, "I want to be overshadowed by my co-actors. I admire them, I really want them to do extremely well, I am saying not out of any modesty but that’s how I feel about my co-actors, I am very possessive about them. I only think good for them. I really wanted Samantha to make such an impact with her debut in the series and that too you know a series made by Raj DK and Suparn Verma."
