Samantha is hailed as the 'South Queen' and is one of the most sought-after actresses in the country. While she is at the peak of her career, the new reports suggest that Sam is planning to take a hiatus from acting. We have learnt that Samantha is going to take a one-year break to look after her health.

Sources revealed, "Samantha is currently shooting the film Kushi with Vijay Deverakonda. This is the film's final shooting schedule, which will be completed in two or three days. She is nearly finished with Citadel and will be free of commitments with this." Kushi is a rom-com while Citadel is an action-packed Amazon Prime web series co-starring Varun Dhawan.

"Samantha will take a year-long break from work and will not sign any new Telugu or Bollywood films. She plans to use this time to regain her health and seek additional treatment. Samantha has returned advance payments to producers she had previously taken," added sources. The actress is expected to make a strong comeback after surpassing her autoimmune condition.
