In a heartwarming reunion, popular South Indian actors Vijay Deverakonda and Samantha Ruth Prabhu have once again come together for their upcoming film ‘Kushi’. This pairing follows their successful collaboration in the 2018 hit film ‘Mahanati’. Known for their on-screen chemistry, the duo’s camaraderie extends beyond the silver screen, reflecting a deep bond that fans have come to admire.
However, the journey of their latest collaboration has had its share of challenges. Vijay Deverakonda recently revealed a particularly trying phase during the shooting of ‘Kushi’ when Samantha had ceased speaking to him. This revelation adds a new layer to their behind-the-scenes story.
Samantha Ruth Prabhu, who has been a prominent figure in the film industry, recently made headlines when she announced her decision to take a break from her professional commitments to prioritize her health. The actress was diagnosed with the autoimmune condition myositis the previous year, a condition that led her to reevaluate her priorities and focus on her well-being.
Vijay Deverakonda opened up about Samantha’s battle with myositis and its impact on her life. He shared that there was a period during the filming of ‘Kushi’ when Samantha’s health deteriorated significantly, causing her to withdraw from interactions with the cast and crew. Describing the challenging time, Vijay mentioned, “She stopped talking to us and she stopped seeing all of us. She was extremely unwell. She fought so many battles.”
Vijay Deverakonda’s words reflect the depth of Samantha’s struggles and the strength she exhibited in the face of adversity. He went on to praise her for choosing to share her journey and battles with her fans, a decision that reflects her desire to spread hope and positivity.
