Actress Samantha has shared a simple yet powerful mantra with her fans, which she says has been a game-changer in her life.
The popular actress, regarded as one of the top heroines in the Tamil and Telugu film industries, took to Instagram on Thursday to share her approach to navigating tough moments.
In a post titled Gratitude and Delight, she wrote: “I’ve been practicing this little ritual for the past two years, and it’s what’s got me through some of my toughest moments. It’s simple but powerful: taking a moment to appreciate where I’ve been, where I am, and what lies ahead. I know it sounds squishy, but it really isn’t, and there’s enough data to prove that it helps.”
Samantha encouraged her followers to reflect on their blessings, suggesting they write down three things they are grateful for. “If writing comes naturally to you, jot down three things you’re grateful for today—they don’t have to be big, just honest. But if writing feels hard or forced, that’s okay too. Try saying it in your head or sharing it with someone you trust. Sometimes, just sitting with a quiet 'thank you' in your heart is also enough.”
She emphasized that while the practice might seem simple or insignificant at first, it holds the potential to transform one’s perspective.
“This small practice might feel subtle and simple at first, but it has the power to change the way you see everything. Give it a try—it’s been a game-changer for me,” she wrote, concluding with a friendly note:
“PS: Let me know how it goes for you! What are you grateful for today?”
On the work front, Samantha is currently producing her own film, Maa Inti Bangaram, in which she will portray a gun-wielding woman.
