In a video, Samantha is seen effortlessly doing pull-ups during her workout. Alongside it, she wrote a sharp message for her detractors:

The actor, who has been publicly navigating her battle with myositis, an autoimmune condition, has often had to address unsolicited remarks about her body. Just last year, she responded to a comment urging her to “bulk up,” explaining that her weight is closely tied to her treatment and recovery.

“If you guys must know, I am on a strict anti-inflammatory diet which is required for my condition, which prevents me from putting on weight, keeps in a certain weight bracket and keeps me in a sweet spot with my condition (myositis),” she had shared at the time, adding, “Stop judging. It’s 2024.”

Samantha's recent work

Despite her health challenges, Samantha has maintained a steady professional journey. After a brief hiatus from work due to a flare-up, she returned with a bang. Her recent projects include 'Kushi' (2024) opposite Vijay Deverakonda, and 'Citadel: Honey Bunny', the Indian segment of the international spy thriller series created by Raj & DK.

Samantha has also stepped into production with 'Subham', and is set to headline 'Maa Inti Bangaram', which she is also co-producing. Additionally, she will feature in Netflix’s upcoming drama 'Rakt Brahmand: The Bloody Kingdom'.

Samantha opened up about her diagnosis in 2022 and has since emerged as a fierce advocate for owning one’s narrative, especially in the face of unwarranted commentary.
