Samantha to take a break

Last week, a source close to the actor confirmed that Samantha will be going a break to focus on her health as she is dealing with an autoimmune condition, Myositis. The source 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.”

The source however, denied that Samantha was returning money to producers, claiming that she was not accepting any projects since quite some time.

Samantha’s upcoming show, film

Samantha will be seen doing some high-octane action in Citadel, which has Varun Dhawan as the male lead. Filmmaker duo Raj and DK have directed the show.

Samantha will next be seen opposite Vijay Deverakonda in Kushi. The Telugu film is scheduled to release on September 1. It will also release in Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam. A new song titled Aaradhya will be unveiled on Thursday. It also stars Jayaram, Sachin Khedakar, Murali Sharma, Lakshmi, Ali, Rohini, Vennela Kishore, Rahul Ramakrishna, Srikanth Iyengar and Saranya. The film is anticipated to be an inter-faith love story.
