Shriya had been in the news for controversial outfit since the time of Rajinikanth's Sivaji, where she had to issue public apology that she'd be careful in choosing her outfits! Well, she has really been choosing her outfits carefully since then, and the recent coverpage of Maxim proves her "careful choice" of outfits!
Now that she goes international, there seems to be this common presumption that "exposing" should increase as "exposure" increases! Shriya, who has entered the Telugu film industry with a girl-next-door image is now opening doors to controversies with her outfits.
All her recent stills in media indicate that she's deliberately sending out feelers that she's ready to meet the international audiences now! What more, she's starting out into the international domain, barely!
