Samantha Akkineni: I used to go to the gym to check out Naga Chaitanya

Samantha Akkineni recently took to social media to interact with fans and reveal lesser-known things about her.

The actress was asked about everything from her plant-based diet to her favourite role. While she clarified that she’s not a vegan, she stated that her favourite role so far has to be the one from Nandini Reddy’s

Oh! Baby

. When someone asked why her hubby, actor Naga Chaitanya is so ‘anti-social’ and that they would like to see more of him, she hilariously replied, “Let’s ask Chay,

Chay

why are you so anti-social?”

It’s a known fact that Chay and

Sam

fell in love when they shot for Gautam Vasudev Menon’s

Ye Maaya Chesave

but did you know the reason behind her fitness? When a fan asked how she got into

fitness

, the actress revealed an unknown fact when she said, “I will tell you a big secret. So, you know why I started going to the gym? To check out Chay, because he used to go to this

gym

and I joined because…” and laughed.

Samantha, who was last seen in Oh! Baby and Jaanu will soon be seen in

Shakunthalam

by director Gunasekhar. The actress even ventured onto OTT during the lockdown with a talk show and a web-series that’ll soon start streaming. And with such a rich body of work, one would think she’d want to be remember. But she surprised a fan who asked how she’d want to be remembered by saying, “Actually I don’t mind not being remembered at all, I just care about the present. This moment, am I happy or not, that’s all I care about. I don’t care about being remembered.”
