Samantha Ruth Prabhu, who has been a part of the film industry for 15 years, is now embracing a new chapter of her career. From being one of the most celebrated actors in South cinema to taking bold steps into wellness, fashion, and production, Samantha has steadily expanded her horizons.
Speaking at the National Leadership Conclave hosted by AIMA, Samantha addressed the fleeting nature of stardom. “As an actor you have a short shelf life. Stardom, fame and recognition can be so heady, and you may think for a brief moment that it is all you. But it’s not true — there is a lot of destiny and grace that comes to you as a star. So for me it was important to understand that I wanted to create an impact larger than my shelf life as an actor,” she said in her speech.
In another part of the conversation, she credited her team for guiding her entrepreneurial decisions. “It is not some personal ego trip where I decide based on intuition. I have a very able team who does all the foundational work. I would be lost without them,” she admitted.
The actor also shared snippets from her speech on Instagram, writing, “Progress comes when we step forward, take risks, and trust in our own strength. To every woman with a vision… your voice matters, your ideas matter, and the world needs you to lead.”
On the professional front, Samantha recently produced and made a cameo in the Telugu film Subham under her banner Tralala Moving Pictures. She was last seen in the Amazon Prime Video series Citadel: Honey Bunny with Varun Dhawan, and she continues to connect with audiences through her YouTube channel, where she discusses health and lifestyle with experts.
