Suma is the household name for many of the Telugu TV audiences. She has stardom in her domain and no new anchor could replace her so far. Her saga is unbeatable and unconquerable.
But it doesnt mean that she can make a successful entry into other domain with the stardom she gained. We see many celebrities who are big stars on screen becoming failures in politics. Not everyone can excel in every field.
Suma ventured as an actress initially and acted in many TV serials. She gained recognition and debuted as a heroine in the film Kalyana Praptirastu in the direction of Dasari Narayana Rao way back in 1990s. But that failed miserably.
After that her saga as an anchor has been invincible. Recently she tried her luck again on silver screen with Jayamma Panchayati and toiled a lot for the promotions of the film. But the audience didnt even care for it.
Though the film received critical acclaim, the audience were in no mood to patronize her as an actress on big screen.
So, the sources say that she bid a goodbye for films and decided to focus on her strength.
