Will always be a special special day..

And it's a wrap on #CitadelIndia."

Sources close to the actress had informed Hindustan Times that Samantha is scheduled to travel to the United States in August for a minimum duration of one year.

Samantha intends to seek treatment in the US and may also visit South Korea for medical purposes.

In Citadel, Samantha will showcase her skills in high-energy action sequences, alongside Varun Dhawan, who plays the male lead. The series is directed by the renowned filmmaker duo Raj and DK. Following Citadel, Samantha's next project is the film Kushi, where she will be paired opposite Vijay Deverakonda. The Telugu movie is set to release on September 1 and will also be available in Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam languages. The film features a stellar cast including Jayaram, Sachin Khedakar, Murali Sharma, Lakshmi, Ali, Rohini, Vennela Kishore, Rahul Ramakrishna, Srikanth Iyengar, and Saranya.
