Fact Check: Samantha Prabhu Replaced in Citadel? 

Much has been floating around about Samantha Ruth Prabhu's health and its impact on her filming schedules. This time, the mills said that Samantha had withdrawn from Raj and DK's next project 'Citadel', an original spy series starring Varun Dhawan.

Some also speculated that due to her autoimmune ailment called Myositis, she will be taking a long sabbatical from work, leading to her being replaced in her upcoming projects.

However, these rumours have now been put to rest as a source recently clarified to a leading news website that, "Anything and everything written about her being replaced in Citadel is rubbish. She will begin the shoot in the second half of January."
