Once seen proudly displaying tattoos linked to her past, Samantha Ruth Prabhu now has a word of caution: think twice before going under the needle. In a candid Instagram Q&A, the actress advised her younger self to “never, ever get a tattoo,” a stark contrast to her earlier inked tributes to former husband Naga Chaitanya, including “Chay” on her ribcage and a matching arrow symbol.

Samantha is focused on fresh starts, embracing new roles and even turning producer in her cinematic journey.
