Samantha On Her Hollywood Dreams

Samantha on her Hollywood dreams. Samantha Ruth Prabhu Talks Global Ambitions and "Citadel" Powerhouse Women.

Samantha Ruth Prabhu is riding the wave of excitement surrounding her foray into the global spy universe, "Citadel." She recently shared her enthusiasm about the ambitious project and the incredible women she's connected with along the way.

Samantha explained the concept of "Citadel" as an interconnected world of spies spanning multiple countries, with each season set in a different location. "The first season is based in the US, the second in Italy, followed by India, and next will be Mexico," she revealed in an interview with Business Today. This global scale, she notes, presents a unique opportunity for Indian actors to participate in international storylines without leaving the country.

Samantha recalled a particularly memorable experience at the Women of "Citadel" press junket in London, where she connected with Priyanka Chopra, who stars in the US version of the show. She expressed admiration for Priyanka, calling her a role model, and shared, "Priyanka Chopra was truly amazing... It was really nice to catch up with these girls who are powerhouses. They have done incredible work on their own "Citadel" shows."

When asked about her Hollywood aspirations, Samantha believes that it's a promising time for actors globally. "I think it's a great time to be an actor right now. There is inclusivity, and people speak about it in every room that I have been to, so I don't think that it's too far from reality," she stated. She also highlighted the positive trend of women supporting each other and growing stronger in the industry.

Samantha stars in "Citadel: Honey Bunny" alongside Varun Dhawan, a series directed by Raj and DK and featuring a stellar cast including Kay Kay Menon, Saqib Saleem, and Sikander Kher. The six-episode show premiered on Prime Video on November 6th, and is sure to captivate audiences with its thrilling spy action and global reach.
