Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Naga Chaitanya made a formal announcement about their divorce last week. While this news has left their fans heartbroken, several reports blamed Samantha for the split. The actress, after sharing an empowering quote this morning, released a statement thanking her fans for ‘showing deep empathy.’
The Family Man star in the last few days has been subjected to severe trolling. From meme pages to YouTubers, everybody passed comments on her personal choices like the roles she played or the clothes she wore. Taking to her Instagram stories, she posted a quote by Farida D, which says, “If matters are constantly morally questionable when done by women, but not even morally questioned when done by men - then we, as a society, fundamentally have no morals.”
