Sumanth Exclusive Interview about Anaganaga | Mrunal Thakur | Journalist Nishant

Samantha Ruth Prabhu, a name synonymous with versatility and grace, has not only left an indelible mark in the world of acting but has also ventured into new territories as a producer. Her latest film, Subham, has been well-received by audiences and critics alike, reaffirming her unwavering presence in the industry. Despite facing constant media scrutiny, including harsh online criticism and trolling, Samantha continues to rise above the noise, choosing to focus on personal growth rather than external validation.

In a candid interview, Samantha shared her perspective on the criticism she faces, especially after her high-profile divorce from Naga Chaitanya and her recent health battles. “I’ve always strived to become a better version of myself each day. No matter what life throws at me, I’ve trained myself to learn something from every experience. Even when I was criticized or bashed, I saw it as a challenge — a test of my patience and resilience,” she explained.

Samantha’s journey has been one of constant introspection. “I’ve spent much of my life seeking validation, but this journey has been a lesson. It’s teaching me that it’s okay if someone thinks wrong about me. I’m learning to let go of the constant need for validation. Not everyone has to love me — and that’s perfectly fine,” she revealed. These words resonate deeply, considering the challenges she has faced, from personal loss to health struggles and the subsequent media backlash.

Despite the hurtful comments and rumors, including baseless speculations regarding her health and career, Samantha has remained steadfast. Her diagnosis of myositis, a rare autoimmune condition, was met with unfounded criticism, with some suggesting she was seeking sympathy. Furthermore, her decision to step back from acting has led to unfounded rumors about the end of her career. Yet, Samantha refuses to let such negativity define her.

“The way we grow through criticism is what truly defines us as individuals. As actors, we are constantly judged, but it’s how we learn and evolve through that process that matters,” she said, demonstrating a profound understanding of her craft and life.

On the personal front, speculations regarding her relationship with filmmaker Raj have gained traction, and though neither has officially confirmed the rumors, fans are eager to learn more.

Samantha’s resilience and determination to rise above adversity, coupled with her commitment to embracing challenges, serves as a testament to her strength. Whether as an actor, producer, or individual, she continues to inspire, showing the world that true growth comes not from the approval of others, but from self-acceptance and the courage to keep moving forward despite the obstacles.
