AgenciesSamantha Ruth Prabhu, a constant presence in the media due to her professional accomplishments and personal developments, is once again at the center of attention. This time, a brief but intense public moment has taken social media by storm. A recent video of the actress, known for her roles in Majili and Citadel: Honey Bunny, is gaining rapid traction online. In the footage, she appears visibly annoyed after receiving a phone call, just as she’s approached by photographers attempting to capture her picture.
The video, posted by paparazzo Varinder Chawla, shows Samantha outside what appears to be a gym. She’s seen in activewear—a beige and brown-toned tank top paired with fitted pants. Her hair is casually tied back in a ponytail, and she carries a water bottle. Clearly not in the mood for interactions, she appears visibly uncomfortable as photographers persistently try to click her pictures. Ignoring their requests for a pose, she briefly gestures and seems to say something in frustration before walking away.
This brief moment has since gone viral, sparking conversations in the Reddit community BollyBlindsGossip. Reactions have been divided, with some users criticising her for not handling the media more gracefully, while others have stepped in to defend her right to personal space.
One Redditor pointed out that celebrities often complain about paparazzi despite their PR teams being responsible for alerting them in the first place. They cited a similar incident involving actor Sidharth Malhotra, who was caught off-guard by paparazzi at a hospital after his publicist allegedly tipped them off.
Another user argued that public figures don’t always summon media attention, especially when going about their daily routines. They noted that gym entrances are frequent haunts for photographers in Mumbai, and stars like Samantha are spotted there often—but not always photographed. They questioned how critics would respond if cameras were suddenly thrust into their faces in such vulnerable moments.
A particularly pointed comment compared the situation to inviting guests home, only for them to overstep boundaries. They suggested that even if Samantha’s team had informed the paparazzi, the aggressive proximity and crowding around her were uncalled for. According to them, she had acknowledged the cameras with a wave, but the relentless pursuit that followed was invasive.
Amidst this incident, Samantha is also being discussed for her rumoured relationship with filmmaker Raj Nidimoru, with whom she has worked on The Family Man and Citadel: Honey Bunny. Additionally, eagle-eyed fans recently noticed that her 'Ye Maaya Chesave' tattoo, once visible on the back of her neck and symbolizing a connection to ex-husband Naga Chaitanya, appears to have been removed—another detail fueling ongoing buzz around the actress.
