Recent reports raised eyebrows as they claimed that actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu had allegedly secured a staggering sum of Rs 25 crore from a prominent Telugu actor to fund her myositis treatment. However, Samantha has swiftly put these rumors to rest, utilizing her Instagram Stories platform to set the record straight. Firmly dismissing the speculation, she asserted her ability to manage her well-being, given her extensive tenure in the film industry.


Refuting the sensational claims, Samantha addressed the issue with her characteristic candor. She expressed her disbelief in the exorbitant figure, remarking, "25 crores to treat myositis?! Someone got you a pretty bad deal." With a touch of humor, she alluded to the sheer disproportion between the rumored amount and her actual expenses. Furthermore, she pointed out the glaring incongruity by stating, "I don't think I was paid in marbles for all the work I have done in my career." Her message underscored her capacity to independently safeguard her health without such exorbitant financial commitments.



Samantha articulated her gratitude for the concern but emphasized that she possesses the means to manage her medical situation responsibly. She expressed, "So, I can easily take care of myself. Thank you," putting to rest any notions of dependency on such purported funding.

Beyond the personal context, Samantha displayed her commitment to responsible communication. She shed light on myositis, a condition afflicting thousands, and urged a measured approach in disseminating information about its treatment. In an age of rampant misinformation, her call for prudence resonated.

Myositis became a part of Samantha's life in 2022 when she was diagnosed with the auto-immune ailment. A TV report had initially fueled the controversy, suggesting that the actress had borrowed an eye-watering Rs 25 crore from an anonymous Telugu actor to finance her treatment. However, the identity of this actor remained concealed, adding a layer of intrigue to the narrative.

Samantha's candid response serves as a reminder of the importance of accurate information and thoughtful discourse, especially in matters concerning health and well-being. As a prominent figure in the entertainment industry, her words hold weight, urging responsibility and transparency in discussions about medical conditions and their associated treatments.
