Samantha Ruth Prabhu started out her career in showbiz with the Telegu film, Ye Maaya Chesave, in 2010. Since then, she has not looked back and has worked in some of the biggest blockbusters in regional cinema. However, her flourishing career faced a setback when she was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition called myositis, following which she took a hiatus from work.
Samantha took the time to get treatment, and in the meantime, she made significant efforts to spread awareness regarding myositis, the autoimmune condition she was diagnosed with. She also started Take 20, a health podcast recently, where she shares insights about health and wellness with her nutritionist and wellness coach, Alkesh Sharotri. In the latest episode of the podcast, Samantha discussed eating healthy food. However, this did not go well with one of the netizens.

The user took to the comment section of the post and pointed out that Samantha had earlier endorsed unhealthy food items like ice-creams and cold drinks. The user penned, “No.1 drama she creates, she will act in every ad like ice cream, cold drinks, etc.” Samantha took note of the comment and responded to the user. She said:
“I have made mistakes in the past when I didn't know any better, but I have since stopped accepting many, many endorsements. I believe in practicing what I preach. God bless.”
After Samantha’s response, her fans retaliated and asked the user not to follow the actress’ advice if he’s bothered by it. One fan wrote, “If you don't like it, just ignore it; it's helpful to someone who's suffering.” Another one said, “You should have the common sense to not eat or drink things that come in ads… There is a lot of awareness created. But you still want to bark at what she’s doing.”

Earlier, during a conversation with the Hindustan Times, Samantha revealed that she made health and fitness her priority after her diagnosis. She added that it is time for her to make the right choices in life and shared that she has been ensuring that she works only with those brands she aligns with. In her words:
“Given how much I have learned, it is hard to now unsee things that I might not have been aware of earlier. Whether it is my choice of food or brands, my entire ethos is now focused on a healthy life. While my choices may seem less than ideal to most, since brands do have a commercial impact on us, I am working towards ensuring that I now align with only those brands that are equally committed to life and well-being. I do my research and try to use the products myself before I endorse them.”
