Right from the moment the news of Samantha's inclusion as the female lead in Telugu film 'Alludu Seenu' was out, gossip mongers have been abuzz that the film`s producer Bellamkonda Suresh has paid a huge amount of about Rs.2 Cr for Samantha and that's the reason why Samantha has accepted the offer to act opposite Bellamkonda Sai Sreenivas, a debutante actor.

Now the movie is ready for a release and Samantha has clarified on this rumour. "I would've been more than happy if I was paid that amount. But it is not true. Bellamkonda Suresh is the first person who contacted me when I was in a break for about 2 months and asked me to take how much time I needed to decide on this. So I immediately accepted his offer to act in 'Alludu Seenu'. I've been paid the same amount I take for other movies", Samantha said.

'Alludu Seenu', directed by V.V.Vinayak, is all set for a release on July 24th. Tamannaah will be seen in a special song in this film. The music album composed by Devi Sri Prasad was out two days back and the songs are being received well.

Bellamkonda Suresh and Bellamkonda Ganesh Babu produce the movie on Sri Sai Ganesh productions banner.
