Samantha Ruth Prabhu talks about re-designing her wedding dress and reveals if it was for the sake of revenge
Cut to now, Naga Chaitanya is all set to get married to Sobhita Dhulipala. It was a few days ago when Samantha surprised everyone by turning her pristine white wedding dress into a classy black gown, and netizens called it a ‘revenge dress’. And now, Samantha talked for the first time about the same. Recently, Samantha sat for an interview with Galatta India, wherein she was asked about her decision to turn her pristine white wedding dress into a black one.
Talking about the same, Samantha stated that after a divorce, girls have to be labelled with a whole lot of tags and stigmas like ‘second hand’, ‘she’s used’, ‘her life is wasted’, and more. The actress said that all of this brings a lot of difficulties for that girl who is divorced and also for her family, and she’s supposed to feel cornered and failed. Samantha can be quoted as saying:
“The reason why I did that is because I don’t know, I can’t speak about men so I’m speaking for women. When a woman goes through a divorce, there’s a lot of shame and stigma attached to that. I get a lot of comments saying second-hand, used, wasted life, and you are supposed to be pushed into a corner, where you are supposed to feel like you are a failure, you are supposed to feel guilt, you are supposed to feel shame that you were once married, and now you are not. I do believe it can be really, really hard for families and girls who have gone through that. Hard for the girls, and hard for their families as well.”
Samantha mentioned that it hurt so much at first, but she then decided to just flip it and own it that she had been divorced and had been married before. Samantha mentioned although it looked like it was revenge, she never tried to take any kind of revenge by re-designing her wedding dress. Stating that it was only a symbol of strength that a tough phase has happened in her life, and it doesn’t mean that her life has ended right there. In Samantha’s words:
“So, the reason I did that is because I wanted to and initially that hurt, it really hurt and then I decided to flip it. I’ll own it yeah I am separated, I am divorced, things haven’t been a fairytale. But that doesn’t mean that I sit in a corner and cry about it and never ever have the courage to live again. And I wanted that to be a kind of it wasn’t any kind of revenge or anything. I know people, it really wasn’t like any kind of that, although it looked like it, it wasn’t. It was that, yes, this has happened and I know it, I am not trying to hide from it, this is it. That doesn’t mean my life ends there, it begins where it ends. And I am very very happy right now.”
