Samantha Prabhu recently posted a very important message on social media for all parents in India. The Family Man actor put up a story on her Instagram that told parents to not worry about their daughters’ weddings.
Instead, the actor urged parents to make sure that their daughters are well educated, confident, and ready to take on the world. Thinking only about marriage should not be what we teach our girls!

She reposted the message on her Instagram story, and asked all the parents who follow her to invest in their daughters’ educations, and not just their weddings.
The message read: “Make your daughter so capable that you don’t have to worry who will marry her. Instead of saving money for her wedding day, spend it on her education and most importantly, instead of preparing her for marriage, prepare her for herself.”

The message went on to relay that daughters should be confident and love themselves, and most importantly, “be able to throat punch someone” if the need arises! This seems like very pertinent advice, especially in a country like India.
Amidst speculations of her own marriage and personal life, this seems like a poignant message to send out into the universe and it certainly holds a lot of weight. Samantha and Naga Chaitanya recently announced their separation in a joint statement.
