CHENNAI: Actress Manjima Mohan, who recently announced her relationship with Gautham Karthik, conveyed her support to actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu, who is undergoing treatment for the auto-immune condition called Myositis.

She took to her official Instagram handle and shared a video during Yashoda promotions in which Samantha is seen shedding tears over the bad times she has been through.

In the video, Samantha trashed reports in a section of the media that had claimed that the condition was life-threatening and stated that the last three months have been very dark and she had been taking high-dose medications along with never-ending trips to doctors. "People should know that everybody has good and bad times. It doesn't matter if you are rich or famous. Everybody has good times and everybody has bad and it is important that people realise it," she said in an interview.
