Samantha Ruth Prabhu's manager rubbishes reports of her quitting 'Citadel'; shooting to start this month

People have been excited ever since the Indian adaptation of 'Citadel' was announced. Varun Dhawan and Samantha Ruth Prabhu have been roped in to play the lead roles. But with rumours circulating that Samantha had quit the show, her manager has issued a statement calling the claims "rubbish".

As reported by Bollywood Hungama, Samantha's publicist said, "Anything and everything written about her being replaced in 'Citadel' is rubbish. She will begin the shoot in the second half of January."

'Citadel' is an Indian installment of the spy series of the same name. The show will be directed by filmmakers Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK and the series will stream exclusively on Prime Video. Varun Dhawan will be making his OTT debut with the series.

In his latest big screen outing, Varun featured in 'Bhediya'. Samantha will next be seen in 'Shaakuntalam' directed by Gunasekhar.
