Samantha has been handling so much on her plate right now and it all seemed very sad for her fans to look at her breaking down. She was madly in love with her now-separated husband, actor Naga Chaitanya. As she was still recovering from such a great crisis, Samantha got diagnosed with Myositis, which is a dangerous illness. She refrained from social media, film gatherings, and social outings to find her inner strength to align her life. She was involved in self-healing techniques.

She was then handed a tissue to help herself. At the same time, the crowd kept cheering for her calling out her name, which made her even more emotional. The videos and pictures of the same are now going viral on the internet, especially on YouTube.
