Samantha was last seen in Kushi. The romantic drama also starred Vijay Deverakonda in the lead. The film gained mixed reviews from all and earned over Rs 70 crore at the box office. After Kushi, Samantha took a break from acting to focus on her health. She was diagnosed with Myositis. The actress resumed work earlier this year when she said, “Yes, I am going back to work, finally. But apart from that, in the meantime, I was so completely jobless. But, I am doing something fun with a friend. It’s a health podcast. It is quite unexpected, but it is something that I really, really love. I am extremely passionate about and I am very excited.”

Meanwhile, Samantha will be seen in the Indian version of Citadel which also stars Varun Dhawan. It is helmed by Raj and DK and the team is staying tight-lipped about its plot. However, earlier this year, Priyanka Chopra opened up about the Indian remake of her show and revealed that the storylines are connected.

Besides this, Samantha also has Bangaram in her pipeline. Earlier this year, Samantha gave a surprise to her fans on her birthday when she shared the poster of her film. The initial glimpse of the film depicted Samantha in a fierce stance, clutching a double-barrel gun and showcasing a bloody visage.
