Samantha Ruth Prabhu has been busy shooting for her upcoming show Citadel. Last year, the actor shared that she was diagnosed with an auto-immune condition.
Now, as per reports, Samantha has decided to take a break from acting for a year after wrapping her present commitments - Citadel and Telugu drama Kushi. Samantha will reportedly be done with her projects in the coming days and then focus on her treatment of Myositis.
Marking a year of battling Myositis, Samantha had recently shared on Instagram, "t’s been one year since the diagnosis. A year of forced new normal. Many battles with my body… no salt, sugar or grains with a cocktail of meds for main course, forced shut downs and forced restarts. A year of seeking meaning, reflection and introspection. Of professional failures too… to make things more interesting A year of prayers and poojas… not praying for blessings and gifts… but praying to just find strength and peace. A year that has taught me that not everything goes your way all the time. And more importantly, that it’s ok when it doesn’t. That I must control the controllables, let go off the rest, and keep moving forward one step at a time. That sometimes it’s not about grand successes, but that functioning forward is in itself a win. That I mustn’t sit around waiting for things to be perfect again or wallowing in the past. That I must hang on to love and those I love… and not give hate the power to affect me. There will be so many of you fighting far harder battles. I pray for you too. The gods may delay, but they never deny. They never deny peace, love, joy and strength to those who seek it. The only things worth seeking."
