Samantha Ruth Prabhu, who is currently in the spotlight promoting her upcoming series ‘Citadel: Honey Bunny’, took some time to engage with her fans through an interactive Q&A session on Instagram Stories. During the session, one follower left a comment asking her to “bulk up” and gain some weight, which led the actress to respond thoughtfully.
Addressing the comment, Samantha shared a candid message in a video, explaining that her weight is directly related to her health condition, myositis. “I’ve seen a lot of comments about my weight,” she said. “For those wondering, I am following a strict anti-inflammatory diet due to my condition. It helps manage my health, keeps me within a certain weight range, and ensures I’m in a stable condition. It’s important to understand that judging people based on their appearance is unnecessary. Let others live as they choose.”
Samantha’s response emphasized the importance of kindness and understanding in today’s world, urging people to stop commenting on others’ bodies. “It’s 2024; let’s embrace positivity and support one another,” she added.
On the professional front, Samantha is gearing up for the release of ‘Citadel: Honey Bunny’, the Indian adaptation of the global Citadel franchise. The action-packed series, created by Sita R Menon and directed by Raj & DK, will be available for streaming on Prime Video starting November 7. The series is part of a larger global espionage universe, executive produced by the Russo Brothers’ AGBO, and follows the story of a spy agency called Citadel as it faces off against its formidable enemy, Manticore.
