Why Samantha Ruth Prabhu is taking up fewer projects?

In an interview with Elle, the actress shared that she is proud of the women in the entertainment industry, who are demanding their space. She is glad to be part of this change and asking for better roles and fully-fledged characters. Addressing doing fewer movies, she said, "I’ve always felt that it is better to do fewer films with substance than a bunch without. I believe breaking stereotypes is very important, so I was particular about not doing the same thing; the audience would get bored."

When asked what keeps her excited on set even after being part of the entertainment industry for around 24 years now. To this, Samantha replied that she still "feels like a newcomer" and has so much to learn. That's the magic of films per Samantha because one has to step into a different character and world with each script. She concluded by saying that the thought of it is "terrifying and so, so exciting".
