During the conversation, Tamannaah played a fun game of Rapid Fire with us where she gave some rapid and fiery answers. Amongst them, when Tamannaah was asked that out of Rashmika Mandanna, Dulquer Salmaan, Samantha Prabhu, Vijay Deverakonda and all the young South stars who are venturing into Hindi films, who has the capability to be the next Hindi superstar, she had quite an honest reply. She said, “I think the idea of stardom has changed. I don’t think there is this concept of biggest star. It ends with Shah Rukh Khan and Mr (Amitabh) Bachchan, if I may say so.”

In the recent times, another thing that has become quite big is the term pan-India and films being made to cater the national audience. When questioned who her favourite pan-India superstar is, Tamannaah commented, “It’s a very fragile term. Unfortunately, this pan-India thing is a new phenomenon, a new fad.”
