Samantha Ruth Prabhu reveals last 6 months were hard on her

Tollywood's Samantha Ruth Prabhu is in the headlines soon after reports surfaced claiming that the actress will be taking a 6-month break from films. As reported earlier, the actress will take a break to focus on her health and undergo treatment for her autoimmune condition.

Sam has been quite honest with her fans and makes the best use of social media to stay connected with her admirers. Fans are well aware that Samantha has been battling myositis, an autoimmune disease, which can cause intense muscle pain and inflammation. Earlier, the ‘Oh! Baby’ actress explained the treatment ‘hyperbaric therapy’ she underwent for myositis.

On Sunday, she once again shared a post on her Instagram story. Her caption for the post read: For those of you who asked… HBOT is an amazing supportive therapy and has many benefits.

As it seems, the picture gives a glimpse of the chamber where she underwent HBOT treatment. The special chamber is known as the hyperbaric chamber. The air pressure in a hyperbaric oxygen therapy chamber is two to three times higher than usual. The therapy lasts up to two hours. If done inappropriately, it can result in a number of bad effects.

Later, in the day, Sam shared that the last six months have been hard for her. Sharing a selfie, the Shaakuntalam actress wrote, “The longest and the hardest six months it has been... Made it to the end.”

On the work front, Sam will be next seen in Kushi opposite Vijay Deverakonda. Fans seem to be quite excited to see the pairing for the first time. The songs have already become a rage and the still from the movie are driving fans of the duo crazy.

If media reports are anything to go by, Sam hasn’t signed any new projects for the time being.
