The news of her wrap comes amid rumours that she is taking a break from acting. Last week, it was reported that Samantha is taking a backseat from her work to focus on her health. A source told India Today, “She will take a year-long break from work and will not sign any new Telugu or Bollywood films. She plans to use this time to regain her health and seek additional treatment. Samantha has returned advance payments to producers she had previously taken.”

Sources close to the actress informed Hindustan Times that Samantha will be traveling to the United States in August for a minimum one-year break. The reason for her break is her ongoing battle with an autoimmune disease, which requires extensive treatment and therapy sessions. She plans to seek treatment in the US and may also visit South Korea for medical purposes.

Besides Citadel India, Samantha also has Kushi in the pipeline. The actress stars alongside Vijay Deverakonda. The film marks their second movie together. The film is slated to release on September 1. Samantha also has Citadel India, the Indian spin-off of Priyanka Chopra’s Citadel.
