Why is Samantha Ruth Prabhu leaving the film race?

Samantha Ruth Prabhu is now choosing only passion and health projects in her career

Samantha Ruth Prabhu’s new journey

After appearing in hit films and series continuously for more than 15 years, Samantha Ruth Prabhu has decided to slow down the pace of her career a bit.

Now she is doing only those works which are close to her heart – be it a film, business or a fitness-related project.

Focus on passion projects

Samantha says that earlier she did many such projects which were not passion-driven, but now she puts her whole heart and energy in every work. She says – “Now I only do what really excites me.

Every film, every business investment, every production – everything is connected to my heart.”

Priority to health and quality work

Where Samantha used to shoot four to five films simultaneously earlier, now she has left this race.

She believes that it is important to listen to the body, and that is why she has reduced her workload.

Now, even though the number of projects is less, the quality is better than ever.

Recent Projects

Recently, Samantha did a cameo in the Telugu film Subham, which she also produced under her production house Tralala Moving Pictures.

Apart from this, earlier this year, she appeared in Amazon Prime Video’s action-thriller series Citadel: Honey Bunny opposite Varun Dhawan, produced by Raj & DK.

Upcoming Work

Now, fans will see her in Rakt Brahmand: The Bloody Kingdom – a high-octane series that stars big names like Aditya Roy Kapur, Ali Fazal, Wamiqa Gabbi and Jaideep Ahlawat.

The show is currently in production and will release in 2026.

The real change

Samantha’s change is not just a career strategy, but a lifestyle choice.

She now gives as much importance to work-life balance, mental health and personal happiness as to professional success.
