The toxic paparazzi culture is not unknown to us. Stars have been trolled, made uncomfortable, and subjected to cheap and malicious questions even in the past. However, the practice reached another level when the South actress, Samantha Ruth Prabhu, was on her way to attend the third trailer launch ceremony for her much-anticipated movie "Shaakuntalam" on Thursday.
