In a surprising turn of events, the talented Samantha Ruth Prabhu decided to take a well-deserved hiatus from her bustling career. With her pan-Indian fame soaring to new heights, courtesy of her stellar performance in “The Family Man 2,” Samantha’s market value has skyrocketed.
As a result, she boldly hiked her fee for new projects, demanding a staggering Rs 10 crores per film, a significant leap from her previous charges of Rs 5 crores for acclaimed movies like “Kushi” and “Citadel.”
But Samantha’s commitment to her craft comes with a price, and in this case, it’s a temporary sacrifice. The actress has made an extraordinary decision to halt signing any new projects, even going to the extent of returning advance payments to producers.
This bold move means she will be putting a pause on her acting career for the next six months, a period that may result in an estimated loss of nearly Rs 15-20 crores, excluding her lucrative brand endorsements. Taking into account her brand deals, the potential financial impact reaches a staggering Rs 30 crores per year.
During this sabbatical, Samantha will actively promote her upcoming film “Kushi” and the eagerly anticipated “Citadel” web series. But rest assured, her passion for acting remains unwavering, and the year 2024 holds the promise of tremendous opportunities for the actress.
