Sharing the moments on Instagram, Samantha wrote, "Light of Joy 2025. What a beautiful evening it was, one filled with laughter, gratitude, and togetherness."

She further added, "This year’s gratitude activity was extra special, each child wrote down what they’re thankful for, reminding us all of how much love and hope can exist in the smallest hearts. This was our special Diwali celebration in Pratyusha Support’s 11th year, having crossed 10 gorgeous years of purpose, we continue to grow stronger in our journey of spreading love, light, and hope."

The actor concluded her note with a heartfelt message of hope and community: "We’re already dreaming bigger for our next event, with more NGOs, more children, and hopefully, our donors joining us in person too! Until then, let’s keep sharing the light. Happy Diwali, everyone."

Fans flooded the comments section with love and appreciation for the actor’s thoughtful celebration. One user commented, “You are spreading light proof that one soul can brighten a universe for all the kids,” while another wrote, “The kids are the happiest I’m sure and you too look small kid there.”

Samantha’s “Light of Joy” initiative, which she conducts under her foundation Pratyusha Support, has entered its 11th year — marking over a decade of empowering and uplifting underprivileged children through compassion and care.

On the professional front, Samantha Ruth Prabhu is currently working with Raj & DK on their upcoming series Rakt Brahmand: The Bloody Kingdom, which also stars Aditya Roy Kapur, Ali Fazal, Wamiqa Gabbi, and Jaideep Ahlawat.
