By: Tupaki Desk | 8 Jun 2025 1:28 PM ISTSamantha Ruth Prabhu is once again making headlines. This time it�s not for her movies or web series but for a personal change that fans quickly noticed. In a new video she shared on Instagram, Samantha appeared without the popular "YMC" tattoo that once symbolized her relationship with ex-husband Naga Chaitanya.
Samantha and Naga Chaitanya were once one of the most loved celebrity couples. They got married after working together and being in a relationship for a few years. During that time, Samantha got a few tattoos related to their love story. One of them was "YMC" which stood for Ye Maaya Chesave, the film where they first acted together. She also had a tattoo that read �Chay� on her rib area and a bow shaped tattoo on her hand.
Samantha continued to keep these tattoos even after their separation. However, fans recently observed that the �YMC� tattoo on her neck was missing in a recent Instagram video. This video posted for a brand promotion had the caption �Nothing to hide.� This sparked discussions among netizens. Some say she is slowly erasing her past while others believe the tattoo might have just been covered with makeup for the shoot.
Samantha has been busy with new film and web projects including her production work. She is also rumored to be in a relationship with filmmaker Raj Nidimoru. Whether the tattoo removal is permanent or temporary is unclear. But fans feel it�s part of her moving on from the past. Naga Chaitanya on the other hand has already started a new life and married actress Sobhita Dhulipala.
