South
India's
top
actress
Samantha
Ruth
Prabhu,
who
is
currently
riding
the
success
of
her
multilingual
film
Yashoda,
shared
an
Instagram
post
last
month
talking
about
her
health
condition
called
Myositis
and
her
journey
to
recovery.
In
the
post,
she
said,
"A
few
months
back,
I
was
diagnosed
with
an
autoimmune
condition
called
myositis.
The
doctors
are
confident
that
I
will
make
a
complete
recovery
very
soon.
I
have
had
the
good
days
and
bad
days,
physically
and
emotionally,
and
even
when
it
feels
like
I
can't
handle
one
more
day
of
this,
somehow
that
moment
passes.
I
guess
it
can
only
mean
that
I
am
one
more
day
closer
to
recovery."
