Samantha Ruth Prabhu suffered a concussion while shooting for Citadel India: ‘I forgot everyone’s name for two-three hours’

She said, “We are definitely pushing the bar from Raji from The Family Man and we can’t do the same action, people won’t enjoy it. It has to be a notch higher, I know it, they (Raj and DK) know it. We all are a bit crazy. We do not know when to tell each other to stop, we just keep going on. It’s a circus.”

Samantha also recalled, “I had a concussion on sets. I forgot everyone’s name for good two-three hours. To Raj, I was like, ‘Wait let me check my phone, what is his name?’ I haven’t had a concussion before, I didn’t know how it felt but I went back and shot after a few hours.”

While announcing that she has joined the cast of Citadel (India), Samantha said she took the project up “in a heartbeat” when Raj and DK approached her. In a statement, she added, “The Citadel universe, the interconnected storylines between the productions across the globe, and most importantly, the script of the Indian installment really excited me. I am thrilled to be a part of this brilliant universe conceptualised by the Russo Brothers’ AGBO. I am also looking forward to be working with Varun for the first time, on this project. He is someone who is full of life and cheer when you’re around him.”

The Indian instalment of Citadel is yet to be named. Meanwhile, the Russo Brothers’ helmed Citadel, headlined by Priyanka Chopra and Richard Madden, will start streaming on Prime Video on April 28.
