Popular actress Samantha is stepping into the role of producer with the film Subham, under her banner Tralala Moving Pictures. The film is directed by Praveen Kandregula, with background score by Vivek Sagar and music composed by Clinton Cerejo. Subham is set for a worldwide release on May 9.

Ahead of the film's release, Samantha interacted with the media on Tuesday. She said that she is nervous as Shubham was her first film as a producer. She also said that she appreciated that the post-production, mixing, and editing teams had all been working tirelessly.

Revealing the reason for naming the film as “Shubham”, she mentioned that the story revolves a lot around a TV serial, and in the show, everyone waits for the final 'Subham' card (the traditional end slide in Indian TV serials) and that’s how the title was choosen. As for her production house ‘Tralala’, she said that it was  inspired by a childhood rhyme called ‘Tralala - Brown Girl in the Rain’. 

She recalled that it was director Gautham Menon who gave her the first break she said that he could have chosen any top actress at the time, but he gave a newcomer like her a chance. She revealed that now, as a producer, she wanted to follow in his footsteps and encourage fresh talent.

She said that the story of Subham written by Vasant isn’t just horror or comedy but it was more of a social satire. She also appreciated Clinton Cerejo’s music and Vivek Sagar’s background score . “I’ve been in the industry for nearly 15 years now. With all this experience, I felt it was the right time to start a production house” she said. She mentioned that ‘Shubham’ got a perfect release date May 9th which falls right in the middle of the summer holidays.
