Hyderabad:Samantha Ruth Prabhu shot for her Telugu film Kushi and Citadel: Honey Bunny series after she was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition called Myositis. In the latest episode of her health podcast, Take 20, the actor recalls how shooting for Citadel was especially 'strenuous' as it required her to pull off a lot of intense action sequences.
In a glimpse from Take 20 Episode 3, Samantha and co-host Alkesh Sharotri are seen recalling how the actor had a tough time shooting for Citadel: Honey Bunny. In the video, Samantha is seen saying, "I had to finish Kushi and I had to shoot for Citadel which is extremely physical. There is a lot of action involved. So it was very strenuous."
The actor further reveals that her team had made many calls to Alkesh, who is her wellness coach and nutritionist, in the middle of the shoot to ask for guidance as she was having spasms and cramping. Recalling those days, Alkesh adds, 'I remember this one particular incident where you had to do like an action sequence.' Adding to it, Samantha exclaimed, "Oh God and I passed out." While Alkesh continues, "You had a concussion. And the person who was training you there, they were not very helpful in relaying the information. Oh God, those were crazy times."
