Samantha Ruth Prabhu has bounced back amid treatment for an autoimmune condition called Myositis. The actress is currently shooting for the Hindi version of Citadel with Varun Dhawan and Sikandar Kher in Belgrade. Today, she shared a bunch of pictures from her visit to a church and reflected on her journey in the past year since the diagnosis. Samantha called it a year of 'seeking meaning, reflection and introspection'.
On Instagram, Samantha shared pictures and wrote, "It’s been one year since the diagnosis. A year of forced new normal. Many battles with my body… no salt, sugar or grains with a cocktail of meds for main course, forced shutdowns and forced restarts. A year of seeking meaning, reflection and introspection. Of professional failures too… to make things more interesting A year of prayers and poojas… not praying for blessings and gifts… but praying to just find strength and peace."
She further added, "A year that has taught me that not everything goes your way all the time. And more importantly, that it’s ok when it doesn’t. That I must control the controllables, let go off the rest, and keep moving forward one step at a time. That sometimes it’s not about grand successes, but that functioning forward is in itself a win. That I mustn’t sit around waiting for things to be perfect again or wallowing in the past. That I must hang on to love and those I love… and not give hate the power to affect me. There will be so many of you fighting far harder battles. I pray for you too. The gods may delay, but they never deny. They never deny peace, love, joy and strength to those who seek it. The only things worth seeking."
Samantha was last seen in the period drama, Shaakuntalam.
