When Samantha Ruth Prabhu's announced her illness

Last year, Samantha announced being diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disease known as, myositis. She took to her Instagram account to share a picture of herself in the hospital. The actress even shared a long caption saying, It is this love and connection that I share with all of you, that gives me the strength to deal with the seemingly unending challenges that life throws at me. A few months back I was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition called Myositis."

She further added, "I was hoping to share this after it had gone into remission. But it is taking a little longer than I hoped. I am slowly realising that we don’t always need to put up a strong front. Accepting this vulnerability is something that I am still struggling with."
