Actress Sameera Reddy has revealed that she had a stammering problem, and it was actor Hrithik Roshan who helped her overcome it.

Appearing on a chat show recently, Sameera spoke of her struggles with stammering, adding that Hrithik, who had struggled with it early on in life, helped her deal with the issue. “Due to my stammering problem, I would hesitate to speak in front of others, and (would hesitate) going for auditions thinking that people would judge me. Hrithik, being the sweet and caring person, noticed this and gave me a book that changed my life. It helped me overcome my fear. Gradually, I started noticing changes in my speech,” the actress, who recently gave birth to her second child with husband Akshai Varde, was quoted as saying.
