Tamannaah is a Mumbai girl who might have conquered the South industry but remained a Mumbaiker at heart. She's that rare phenomenon who is looked upon as an actor in the biggest of commercial films. She had concentrated a chunk of her professional life down South but currently, thanks largely to OTT, is making a comeback of sorts to Hindi content. She loves to push the envelope and OTT is helping her do that big time. She's kind of rediscovering herself and attracting tons of new admirers in the process. She's not someone who likes to rest on her laurels and says she feels like she's undergoing another beginning. Excerpts from a heart talk with the beautiful and talented diva.

Actually, I am still driven when it comes to work. But I don’t mind because work is a lot of fun for me.
