Will Samantha become Priyanka Chopra’s mother?
Speculations are rife that Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Priyanka Chopra might cross over on screen as a mother-daughter duo.
Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Priyanka Chopra just have one thing in common – they both are a part of the Citadel universe. While Priyanka is leading the foundation version of the series, Samantha will be seen in the Indian counterpart. Although details about Samantha’s role are still under wraps, a recent episode of Priyanka’s Citadel has hinted that Samantha may play Priyanka’s mother in the series.
WARNING: Citadel spoilers ahead: In the fifth episode, Priyanka’s character Nadia receives a call from someone – it is soon revealed that the ‘somebody’ is her father Rahi Gambhir. As the scene unfolds, it becomes more and more clear that Rahi’s character is being played by Varun Dhawan.
This moment has opened the floodgates of speculation about Samantha’s role in the Citadel universe. As per a report in Siasat.com, speculations are rife that Samantha might play Priyanka’s mother in the series. Judging by the arrangement of events, Citadel India can be set in the late 80s and early 90s. The makers are yet to respond to these claims.
The speculations are well supported by the fact that Samantha confirmed that Citadel India is not a remake of the international version and is just a sequel to it. Samantha shared this news when a fan asked her about it.
“@samantharuthprabhuoffl I have a question is Priyanka ka Garh and yours Garh same story?? Why am I asking if Priyanka has been dubbed in all Indian languages… So if you are doing the same story for Indian audience then many people must have seen it. I’m a bit confused… can you clarify is it the same or different?? BTW (by the way) Happy Birthday dear… God bless you!!” wrote one of the fans in the comments section. To this, the Shakuntalam actress clarified that Citadel India is not a remake. “It’s not a remake!!” she replied. .
Meanwhile, Varun confirmed to PTI that the team of Citadel India will fly to Siberia for the shoot.
