Samantha kickstarts #GrowWithMe challenge, nominates Rakul Preet, Lakshmi Manchu

Actress Samantha Akkineni, who has been keeping herself busy with terrace gardening in the lockdown, has flagged off the Grow With Me challenge and nominated actresses Rakul Preet Singh and Lakshmi Manchu to grow their own produce at home.

In her latest video on Instagram, the actress shared the experience of growing her own produce on her terrace. She has been encouraging more people to harvest on their own.

"So, for the next few weeks, let's grow together, make mistakes together and learn. So go find a pot, some soil, seeds, hydroponic home kit and even a milk packet. To start things off, I'm challenging Lakshmi Manchu and Rakul. Let's get our hands dirty," she posted.

The video gives us a quick glimpse of Samantha’s terrace garden, where she’s grown a variety of greens and vegetables.

Samantha, who was last seen on screen in the Telugu film Jaanu (2020), the remake of the Tamil 96 (2018), has two projects currently in hand. The actress recently signed a Tamil horror flick with Ashwin Saravanan and the upcoming Tamil romantic comedy, Kaathu Vaakula Rendu Kadhal, which also stars Vijay Sethupathi and Nayanthara.
