South Indian star Samantha Ruth Prabhu may play a woman of steel on screen, but she’s no damsel in distress off screen. After attending the trailer launch of her latest movie, Shaakuntalam, Samantha Ruth Prabhu had to deal with insensitivity online. Samatha’s photos from the Shaakuntalam trailer launch were tweeted by a Twitter handle with the post, “Feeling sad for Samantha. She lost all her charm and glow. When everyone thought she came out of divorce strongly and her professional life is seeing heights, myositis hit her badly, making her weak again.” The star had been diagnosed with myositis in 2022 but had reassured fans that she was on the track to health. Samantha gave a classy response and said, “I pray you never have to go through months of treatment and medication like I did...And here's some love from me to add to your glow.”

In June 2022, Prabhu interviewed Sadhguru in Hyderabad as part of his Save Soil campaign. At the environmental event, she asked the Indian spiritual leader if everything unfair that happens in one’s life is caused by karma, or past deeds. His response was: “I want the world to be fair to me is a schoolgirl question. By now, you should know the world is not fair. It will not be fair.”

When the actor was drawn into the headlines over her choice of clothes, she snapped back. She wrote an open letter to all the haters, in which she said: “As a woman, I bear firsthand knowledge of what it means to be judged. We judge women based on what they wear, their race, education, social standing, appearance, skin tone and the list goes on and on. Making snap judgements about a person simply based on the clothes they wear is quite literally the easiest thing one can do.”
