Samantha Ruth Prabhu’s Social Media Advice on Nebulization Stirs Controversy

Actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu sparked controversy after recommending hydrogen peroxide nebulization for viral infections on social media. This advice drew criticism from a prominent doctor, Dr. Cyriac Abby Philips, known online as “The Liver Doc.” Dr. Philips strongly condemned the suggestion, calling it dangerous and ineffective, and labeling Samantha “health and science illiterate.” He further suggested legal repercussions for potentially endangering public health.

Samantha responded with a lengthy explanation, acknowledging Dr. Philips’ expertise but objecting to his aggressive tone. She emphasized her good intentions and the limitations of conventional medicine, particularly for those struggling financially.

Samantha clarified that she shared her experience as a patient seeking relief, not as a medical professional. She denied any financial motivation and stressed her desire to offer alternative options, especially for those with limited access to traditional treatments.

The actress expressed a preference for a more civil exchange, suggesting a discussion between her doctor (whom she had tagged in the original post) and Dr. Philips. This, she believed, could foster a productive learning experience.

Samantha’s response highlights the complexities of navigating medical information in the digital age. While her intention to share potentially helpful options is commendable, the lack of scientific backing for her recommendation raises concerns.

Responsible celebrity influence: Celebrities with significant platforms should exercise caution when promoting health advice. Consulting with medical professionals and ensuring information is accurate is crucial.
Respectful communication: Medical professionals can effectively address misinformation by providing clear explanations and engaging in civil discourse.
Ultimately, fostering collaboration between celebrities, healthcare professionals, and the public can pave the way for a more informed approach to health and wellness.

The situation also brings to light the challenges faced by patients seeking alternative or affordable treatment options. Further exploration and discussion around these issues might be beneficial.

Will Chiru’s Story Work With Charan As The Lead?

After the release of ‘Mahanati’, Megastar Chiranjeevi specially called the team and appreciated them. There was a conversation about Nag Ashwin and Chiranjeevi working together at that time. The director himself said that he has a script in mind for Chiranjeevi. He hinted that it was a socio-fantasy film on the lines of ‘Paathala Bhairavi’. There was a lot of curiosity regarding this project.

Reports arrived a few years back that the story of ‘Kalki’ was narrated to Chiranjeevi and Megastar suggested that Prabhas would be the right choice. Nag Ashwin clarified that Chiranjeevi had no connection with ‘Kalki’ and it did not go to the legendary actor at all. The story he thought for Chiranjeevi is still in the box and sources say that Vyjayanthi Movies are planning to bring it out once again.

After ‘Kalki 2’ is done, there are chances of Nag Ashwin taking up the script he readied for Chiru. But insiders reveal that it will have Charan in the lead instead of Chiranjeevi. The legendary actor is already doing ‘Vishwambhara’ and he may not touch fantasy genre any time soon. Charan never did such a project before and sources reveal that the ‘RRR’ hero might be the best option for Nag Ashwin. If it happens, the combination is going to garner a lot of attention.
