Samantha has always been vocal about her personal life and health issues. However, her recent actions during the promotions of her movies Yashoda and Shaakunthalam have raised a few eyebrows.
Samantha, who was seen frequently revealing her health issues during the promotions of these movies, was accused of using her health problems to gain sympathy from the audience. Some critics even suggested that she played the victim card to promote her films.
Despite the criticism, Samantha has always maintained that she was being honest and transparent about her health issues. She has been suffering from health problems for a long time and has been actively seeking treatment for the same. During the promotions of Yashoda and Shaakunthalam, Samantha spoke at length about her struggles with her myositis and how it had affected her weight and overall health.
However, things seemed to have changed during the promotions of her latest project, Citadel. Samantha looked fit and healthy and did not mention her health issues even when asked by the media. This has led to speculation that Samantha has realized her mistake and is now avoiding talking about her health issues in public.
While it is important for public figures to raise awareness about health issues and encourage people to seek medical help, it is equally important for them to do so responsibly. Using health issues to gain sympathy or promote movies can be disingenuous and insensitive.
