He added that he is sorry to disappoint people but before breaking a relationship,he would think a thousand times as he knows the repercussions as he himself comes from a broken family.


Naga’s statement highlighted his deep understanding of the pain caused by separation, having experienced it firsthand as the son of superstar Nagarjuna and Lakshmi, who divorced during his childhood.


He stressed that the decision to part ways with Samantha was mutual and taken with respect. He added that he feels bad that it happened but they went away with a lot of grace.



Since their split, both Naga and Samantha have focused on their respective lives and careers. Naga Chaitanya is now married to actress Sobhita Dhulipala, and the couple has kept their relationship largely private. Naga and Sobhita’s marriage will now be seen as a Netflix documentary soon. Naga also released his first film post his marriage Thandel with Sai Pallavi and it has minted about Rs 22 crore in India in two days.
