After a super long wait, the trailer of Samantha’s upcoming film titled ‘Yashodha’ was released recently. Directed by the Hari-Harish duo, the movie’s trailer showed Samantha in a pregnancy care centre, getting into trouble because of some illegal activities taking place there. The trailer suggests that the movie is based on surrogacy and pregnancy. This movie of Samantha is slated to release on November 11th. Meanwhile, Samantha recently revealed that she has been diagnosed with an auto-immune condition called Myositis. She is currently undertaking treatment for the same. Many from the film fraternity shared their prayers for her speedy recovery, and advised her that ‘This too shall pass’.

Now, her Yashoda co-star Unni Mukudan has praised her and has called her a professional. Talking to a media house, Unni said Samantha is a very talented actress. “She is a very dedicated and hardworking actress. She has prepared a lot for her role, and which includes action and emotional scenes. She interacts well with other artists on set. We discussed ideas to improvise a scene. In Malayalam, the working style is slightly different. We don’t rehearse much and perform directly in front of the camera so that the co-star’s reaction would be natural. I practised the same for this film as well.” When asked if he knew about her medical condition, he said, “No, she was very professional and never revealed that she was fighting such a disease. I’m sure she will recover soon and get back in good health.”

Earlier today, Samantha took to her Instagram to post a photo of herself after a very long time. Posing in black, she has captioned the post, “Like my good friend @raj.nidimoru says, no matter what the day is like, and how shitty things are, his motto is to Shower Shave Show up !! I borrowed it for a day ♥️ For #yashodathemovie promotions .. see you on the 11th” She is seen wearing a black suit along with big black glasses. She’s also wearing an olive green belt accessory along with minimalistic golden earrings. See photos:
