Samantha Ruth Prabhu finds solace in Will Smith's words; says work hard and learn from your setbacks

Samantha Ruth Prabhu has become a household name since her spectacular performance in Pushpa: The Rise's item song. The actress received an amazing response from the audience for her moves and charisma in the song 'Oo Antava Oo Oo Antava'. Samantha Ruth Prabhu recently shared her thoughts on actor Will Smith's book 'Will' on Instagram. 

The 'Majili' actress is a reader as well as a fitness nut. Samantha has shared her thoughts on 'Will' in recent social media posts, which are surprisingly comparable to the actress' struggles. The quote read, 

"Over the past thirty years, like all of us, 1 have dealt with failure, loss, humiliation, divorce, and death. I've had my life threatened, my money taken away, my privacy invaded, my family disintegrated-and every single day, still got up, mixed concrete, and laid another brick, No matter what you're going through, there is always another brick sitting right there in front of you, waiting to be laid. The only question is, are you going to get up and lay it"?

Sharing the cover of the book, she added a note with it that read, 

"Work hard, learn from your setbacks, self-reflect, reinvent yourself and never ever give up. Oh, and a sense of humour helps. What a lovely and fascinating book, Will."

Samantha and her husband of four years, Naga Chaitanya, announced their divorce last year. She's only spoken about it a few times since then, but she has frequently shared quotations and comments on social media hinting towards it. Samantha and Chaitanya released a joint declaration on social media last year, proclaiming their separation following weeks of speculation. Despite Samantha's deletion of the post, it remains on Chaitanya's profile.
