Samantha Ruth Prabhu addressed a picture of a Chennai theatre that became viral online. Someone on the internet noticed that all of the movie posters hanging on the walls of the famed theatre Vettri in Chennai starred women and shared the snapshot with the world.
Posters for four movies starring Aishwarya Rajesh, Nayanthara, Trisha, and Kovai Sarala (Sembi) were included in the image. A troll attempted to make fun of Samantha when she responded to the viral picture, but she came prepared with the best comeback possible.
In a Reddit thread, member Deepan Qweeter Kannan displayed a photo of the Vettri Theatre in Chennai and commented on the preponderance of posters for female-directed films. Their caption for the picture reads, “Passing by the Vettri theatre in Chromepet, my sister and I realised it had the banners of all the movies with a woman lead. What a long way Tamil cinema has come! 10 years back this would have been unimaginable.”

Samantha wrote, “Women rising,” in response to the picture. A troll wrote back, “Yes, just fo fall.”
The actor responded to the troll by saying, “Getting back up makes it all the sweeter my buddy,” thereby shutting down the troll and exemplifying the adage “kill them with kindness.”
Samantha’s latest film, Yashoda, has likewise been a critical and box-office triumph. The actress, who has been quite open about her battle with myositis, will next be seen in the historical drama Shaakuntalam.
