Popular South Indian actor Samantha Ruth Prabhu has allegedly been a victim of financial fraud, losing INR 1 crore, by her manager. The incident has raised concerns about the professionalism and trustworthiness of the entertainment industry.
According to Indian media reports, Samantha Prabhu, who is currently taking a break from her acting career to focus on her health condition, has fallen prey to financial mismanagement by her manager. This is not the first time her manager has been involved in such fraudulent activities, as she also duped Samantha’s co-actor Rashmika Mandanna in the past.
The incident occurred when Samantha was in Hyderabad for the promotional event of her upcoming film ‘Kushi’ before leaving for her ongoing trip to the USA. Despite being warned by several producers about her manager’s questionable activities, Samantha had placed her complete trust in her.
Although Samantha Prabhu has not made an official statement about the incident, reports suggest that she is now actively searching for a trustworthy person to manage her professional and financial affairs.
In the meantime, Samantha’s fans eagerly await the release of her next romantic-comedy film ‘Kushi’, in which she will be starring opposite the popular South Indian actor Vijay Deverakonda. The film is scheduled for theatrical release on September 1. She also has an upcoming project, an Indian adaptation of Amazon Prime’s ‘Citadel’, alongside Varun Dhawan.
This unfortunate incident highlights the need for individuals in the entertainment industry, especially actors, to be cautious about who they trust with their finances and career management. It is crucial to have reliable professionals handling their affairs to avoid such financial setbacks and protect their hard-earned money.
