When Naga Chaitanya talked about moving on from Samantha Ruth Prabhu after divorce
Speaking on the podcast Raw Talks with VK, Naga Chaitanya opened up about his life and moving on from his past relationship with Samantha Ruth Prabhu. The actor said, “We both wanted to choose unique paths in life. It happened for our own reasons, and we live with respect for each other. I don’t understand why I need to give any further explanation.”
“Why am I treated like a criminal? I am sorry to disappoint people, but when I decide to split up in a relationship, I think 100 times before I do it. This is because I know the repercussions of ending a relationship. We are both moving forward and living our lives,” Chay added.
Naga Chaitanya further explained that he comes from a broken family himself, and the decision to separate from his ex-wife was not something that happened overnight. He said, “I am a child of a broken family. I know the experiences that come with it. Obviously, I feel bad that it happened. We just went with our own decisions. Unfortunately, it became sensationalized in the headlines and turned into gossip. Everything happens for a reason. You move forward in life and find the right path. The same thing happened to me.”
