India, Aug. 11 -- Actor Sameera Reddy will return to the silver screen after 13 years. Last seen in Tezz in 2012, she shares what kept her away for so long. "A year ago, my son saw my film Race (2008) and asked me, 'Wow, you don't look like that anymore. Mum, why don't you act?' I said, 'Because I've been busy taking care of you and your sister.' He pushed me to reconsider my decision of staying away from showbiz," she shares.

The 46-year-old's comeback project is a horror outing: "This film fit the bill perfectly. Titled Chimni, it's a hardcore horror-thriller that is slated for release by end of this year. I got excited about it as I've never done something in the genre. I was a part of Darna Mana Hai (2004), but only as a narrator." ...
