Mumbai: After Nidhi Agerwal, it was Samantha Ruth Prabhu’s turn to get mobbed by fans.
In a video doing the rounds on Reddit and Instagram, Samantha is seen making her way from the stage towards her car at an event in Hyderabad.
However, the crowd was huge and uncontrollable, and the actress found it difficult to walk despite the security around her.
Netizens expressed their disapproval of such insensitive behaviour because of which female actors suffer.
“Pathetic,” wrote one user.
Another commented, â
Why fans don’t understand boundaries even after rajasaab incident?â
One person posted, âWhy is their management never prepared for these things when they know how common it is.â
âMany incidents happened lives are lost to see celebs – Allu Arjun Hyderabad, Virat &RCB – Bangalore,Vijay rally – Tamil Nadu – yet ppl’s mad obsessive worship for celebrities don’t change in South. They either harm themselves or the celeb in these events. Celeb devotion is on another level in South,â wrote another.
A few days ago, Nidhhi was manhandled by the crowd gathered at a song launch event for âThe Raja Saabâ.
Samantha tied the knot with filmmaker Raj Nidimoru in a private ceremony on December 1.
On the work front, Samantha will next be seen in Raj & DKâs âRakt Brahmand: The Bloody Kingdomâ.
The show, which also features Aditya Roy Kapur, Ali Fazal, Wamiqa Gabbi, and Jaideep Ahlawat, is expected to premiere in 2026.
