New Delhi: Samantha Ruth Prabhu was at the Elle Sustainability Awards on Thursday. The actor's monochrome beadid bodice gown was the centre of everyone's attention. Why? It seems that eagle-eyed fans spotted Samantha's white wedding gown customised for the Award show. Samantha wore the same gown for her fairytale wedding to Naga Chaitanya in 2017.

Kresha Bajaj, who also designed Samantha’s wedding gown, shared a reel of making the gown and redesigning it. She shared how they hand-sewed floral and crystal detailing onto her white gown in 2016, and again did the detailing by dying it all black and changing the silhouette.
“We loved working with Samantha, our muse, to help her create a new memory, and tell another story. Beauty is forever. And it can take on a new form every day,” the designer wrote on her video but many fans suggested that it was Samantha's gown that was repurposed.

Samatha also won a sustainability award. She shared monochrome pictures of her in the gown with a caption that read, "We cannot ignore sustainability anymore. We’re past that stage when it was a choice. It’s now a necessity for the longevity of our planet that we call home. The dress I am wearing today is a beloved gown that has been repurposed for this occasion by the most talented @kreshabajajofficial.”

“While that might sound insignificant… entitled even… to many… I assure you that repurposing my old clothes is only one of many steps I am consciously taking to alter my habits and make my lifestyle more sustainable. And every little gesture, every little decisive action, is important. It all adds up. I urge myself and all of you that have goodwill for me in your hearts to make those little efforts,” she added.
Samantha, Naga Chaitanya
Samantha and Naga Chaitanya married on October 6, 2017 in Goa. The couple had a three-day wedding complete with a Christian and Hindu ceremony. A few days before their anniversary in 2021, the couple announced their separation on Instagram.
Samantha spoke about her marriage and her divorce to Harper's Bazaar, where she said, “When I hit an all-time low of, well, a failed marriage, and my health and work were getting affected, it was like a triple whammy; boom, boom, boom. You know, people go down for far less than what I endured for the last two years or so.”
Samantha will soon be seen in Raj & DK's web series 'Citadel: Honey Bunny' with Varun Dhawan as her co-star.
