What Samantha said

Samantha took to her Instagram Stories and said in a video message to her fans, “Yes, I am going back to work, finally… But apart from that, in the meantime, I was so completely jobless.

I am extremely passionate about it, and I am very excited that it is releasing next week. I hope that some of you really find it extremely useful. And, I think I have enjoyed making this."

Samantha's break from acting

It was in July last year, when Samantha announced a break from her projects for at least one year to focus on her health. She underwent treatment for her autoimmune condition, Myositis, in the US, and travelling around the world. A source had told Hindustan Times, “Few months back, Samantha decided that she will be taking a break from acting, and was just waiting to wrap up her projects — Kushi with Vijay Deverakonda and the Indian segment of Citadel with Varun Dhawan. When I checked with her a few months back, she told me that she is not signing any projects currently."

Samantha was last seen in Kushi, her second Telugu film with actor Vijay Devarakonda. It marked their onscreen reunion after the 2018 film Mahanati. It released on September 1 last year. In the meantime, the actor had also wrapped the filming of the Indian leg of Russo Brothers' web series, Citadel.
