Sam has an enormous following, and she never passes up an opportunity to engage with them. She understands how to treat her fans, whether it's responding to gossip about her or engaging in online banter. The actress recently discussed pay parity in the business. She is also renowned for being brutally honest.

Samantha Ruth Prabhu, one of the most well-liked actors in the business today, discussed wage equity in the movie business in an interview with Pinkvilla. She said, “I am fighting hard, not directly…it’s not like I am fighting to be paid equally, I want it to be a byproduct of the hard work and success. People should just come and say, ‘Yes, we want to pay you this much.’ I shouldn’t have to beg for it. I believe that comes with an incredible amount of hard work.”

Samantha further added, “When I put up this quote in my bio which says, ‘Whatever your capabilities, you must stretch them to the limit and a little beyond’ and when you are a woman in this industry, it’s not just enough to stretch your capabilities to your limits, but then you need that a little more. There’s stress on a ‘little more’ because it’s just that much harder.”

For those who are unfamiliar, Samantha Ruth Prabhu was identified with myositis last year, an uncommon auto-immune condition. She took time away from the filming to focus on her treatment, and she has since recovered.

In Citadel, Samantha will co-star with Varun Dhawan, in addition to that, she has another film with Vijay Deverakonda scheduled, Khushi, which is set to open in cinemas on September 1, 2023.
