Dear Trolls, Samantha Ruth Prabhu Has A Deal For You
Samantha Ruth Prabhu was dressed in a grey shirt and a matching pair of grey trousers. She executed a set of pull-ups effortlessly. Samantha Ruth Prabhu has slammed naysayers for body shaming. Of late, a certain section of social media users has been trolling the actress. They have been calling her 'skinny" and 'silcky". Samatha Ruth Prabhu has now strongly reacted to the negative comments, but this time, in a sarcastic way. Instead of slamming them, she offered the trolls a 'healthy" deal. Taking to Instagram, the Family Man Season 2 actress shared a workout video where she is seen performing pull-ups inside a gym. She wore a blue athleisure co-ord set as she pumped her muscles and did her task. Sharing the video, Samantha Ruth Prabhu captioned, 'Here is the deal. You can't call me skinny, sickly, or anything else unless you can complete three of these first. If you can't, just read between the frikkin lines." She was talking about the pull-ups in the video. Dressed in a grey shirt and a matching pair of grey trousers, the actress executed the strenuous workout effortlessly. Recently, Samantha Ruth Prabhu was snapped outside her gym looking tense while talking to someone on the phone. While rushing towards her car she lost her cool at the paparazzi stationed outside. 'Stop it, guys," she told them sternly before entering her vehicle. Samantha serves as an inspiration to several fitness enthusiasts and often shares glimpses from her workout diaries on Instagram. On the work front, Samantha Ruth Prabhu made her debut as a producer with the recently released Telugu horror-comedy film Subham. The film, produced under her banner Tralala Moving Pictures, is directed by Praveen Kandregula and features Harshith Reddy, Gavireddy Srinivas and Shriya Kontham in crucial roles. Subham revolves around the wives of three friends in a small town who become possessed every night at 9 PM while watching a popular TV serial. The friends, who run the town's only cable TV service, must find a creative solution to this unusual problem. Apart from that, Samantha Ruth was last seen in the web series Citadel: Hunny Bunny opposite actor Varun Dhawan. Helmed by Raj and DK, the show also featured Kay Kay Menon and Saqib Saleem in the leads and premiered on the OTT giant Prime Video. She will star in the upcoming action thriller show, Rakt Brahmand: The Bloody Kingdom, opposite actor Aditya Roy Kapur.

Samantha Ruth Prabhu shuts down naysayers calling her ‘skinny, sickly' with impressive workout video
Jun 28, 2025 05:14 PM IST Actor Samantha Ruth Prabhu is in no mood to take 'crap' from anyone. The actor, who has been vocal about her struggles with myositis, an autoimmune disorder, took to her Instagram stories to share a message for those calling her 'skinny, sickly'. (Also Read: Pushpa girls Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Sreeleela put rift rumours to rest with joint appearance. Watch) Samantha Ruth Prabhu is tired of people criticising her and her body. Samantha took to her Instagram stories on Saturday to post a video of her doing pullups during her workout. Sharing it, she challenged people to do at least three pullups before criticising her, her body or her health. She wrote, 'Here's the deal. You don't get to call me skinny, sickly or any of that crap unless you can do 3 of these first. If you can't… Then read between the frikkin lines…' Samantha Ruth Prabhu challenged naysayers to perform pullups. This is not the first time Samantha has had to respond to comments on her weight or looks. In November last year, the actor-entrepreneur responded to a social media post asking her to gain weight and 'bulk up'. She wrote, 'If you guys must know, I am on a strict anti-inflammatory diet which is required for my condition, which prevents me from putting on weight, keeps in a certain weight bracket and keeps me in a sweet spot with my condition (myositis).' She ended the note by asking people to stop judging and reminding them it's 2024. Recent work Samantha took a break from filming due to a flare-up of her myositis. In 2021, she divorced from Naga Chaitanya and was public about her disorder in 2022. Films she had shot for by then – Shaakunthalam Yashoda – were released in 2022 and 2023. In 2024, she starred in Shiva Nirvana's romantic drama Kushi with Vijay Deverakonda. She also acted in Raj & DK's Prime Video web series, Citadel: Honey Bunny. Samantha recently turned producer with Subham. She will soon star in Maa Inti Bangaram, which she's also producing and Rakt Brahmand: The Bloody Kingdom for Netflix.
