Now, in a new Instagram post, Samantha has shared how she got through the tough times – leaning on her faith. Sharing an image in which she is seen meditating in front of an idol, the actress said, “Sometimes it doesn’t take superhuman strength… faith gets you through. Faith keeps you calm…faith becomes your teacher and your friend. Faith makes you superhuman.”

In October last year, Samantha Ruth Prabhu shared that she had been diagnosed with myositis in an emotional post. Sharing an image in which she is seen dubbing for her film while an IV bag is hooked up to her hand, the actress confessed that it hasn’t always been an easy journey. In her detailed note from 2022, Samantha said: “Your response to the Yashoda the trailer was overwhelming. It is this love and connection that I share with all of you that gives me the strength to face the seemingly endless challenges that life throws at me. A few months ago I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease called myositis. I was hoping to share this after he went into remission. But it takes a little longer than I expected. I’m slowly realizing that we don’t always need to have a strong front. Accepting this vulnerability is something I still struggle with. The doctors are confident that I will make a full recovery very soon. I’ve had good days and bad days…physically and emotionally. And even when I feel like I can’t handle another day, that moment somehow passes. Guess that can only mean I’m one day closer to healing. I love you… THIS ALSO WILL PASS.
