However, according to a report on Siasat.com, Samantha is no more a part of Raj and DK’s web series. The Telugu actress was reportedly finalized alongside Varun Dhawan for the Indian spinoff of Citadel. For the global version of the series, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Richard Madden, and Stanley Tucci are headlining the cast.
Rumours are rife that Samantha had reportedly opted out of the series due to her ill health. The report also suggests that Samantha has been advised to remain “completely disappeared from the public for the next three months". However, there’s been no official statement from her team regarding the same.
Samantha Ruth Prabhu opened up about being diagnosed with Myositis earlier this year. Earlier, it was reported that the actress was planning to take a long break from acting till she recovered completely. However, her team clarified the same and said that due to ‘unforeseen circumstances’, the actress might be able to resume shooting for her Bollywood projects only by May 2023.
