Samantha Ruth Prabhu recently announced her comeback to work following a break from acting. Addressing the same, the actress expressed in one of the interviews that the break was needed and it helped her to heal and restore her self-esteem which was lowered.
She said, "It was the best decision because there's no way I would have been able to continue working. The stress of work, coupled with the condition, is not the easiest thing to handle. I'm really glad that I gave myself time to recover; I had been working for 13 years straight."
She further added, "I've had my fair share of self-loathing and really low confidence, but I've always strived to grow as a person. With that growth came a deeper understanding of my insecurities and self-loathing. I was able to heal by addressing them - not by trying to fix them from the outside, but by fixing the inner trauma that needed more healing than any external quick fix."
