Samantha on shooting action despite health issues
When asked about how tough it was to shoot action for Citadel, when she was diagnosed for myositis, the actor said, “When I see it, I can’t even believe that I actually did it. There were times when I had an IV in the morning and then shot action in the afternoon. So, it was pretty intense everyday. I don’t know if the rest of the crew knew about it. There were days when in the morning I would be sick and Raj would come ask, ‘Are you sure you can shoot?’ I was like, ‘I don’t think I can shoot today.’ But somehow I just don’t know I did it.”
