On Thursday, two important releases in Telugu and Tamil featured Samantha in a lead role. 'U Turn', the Telugu-Tamil bilingual, is one of them. The mystery thriller was leaked online by a mischievous element just hours after it hit the screens.

If this is not enough, even 'Seema Raja' (in which Sam romances Sivakarthikeyan) was leaked online on another portal. This episode brings to light, one more time, the rampant piracy that afflicts Kollywood movies.

Fortunately for the makers of these films, the leaked versions were brought down because of swift action by concerned authorities.

Meanwhile, the Akkineni 'Kodalu' is enjoying the reception she is receiving for her performance in the aforementioned entertainers.
