Actors Naga Chaitanya and Sobhita Dhulipala tied the knot on December 4 at Annapurna Studios in Hyderabad, surrounded by close friends and family. In a recent interview with The New York Times, Chaitanya shared how their relationship began and highlighted the qualities that made him fall in love with Sobhita. He also revealed that he often asks Sobhita to speak with him in Telugu to help him “improve” his grasp of the language.

What Naga Chaitanya Said

Although Naga Chaitanya was born in Hyderabad, he spent nearly two decades growing up in Chennai, where he spoke Tamil along with his mother tongue, Telugu. He attended Padma Seshadri Bala Bhavan and AMM School in Chennai.

Reflecting on his connection with Sobhita, Chaitanya said, “In our industry we meet a variety of people from different languages. Just hearing that same texture [Telugu] and having that same warmth when you speak to someone — I think it just drew me closer so much faster. I keep telling her to keep talking to me in Telugu so I can improve.”

He further added, “With actors, sometimes we are trying to put something out there about our films or something about a product — most of it is staged in a way. So when something pops up that's very organic and real about a person, I immediately gravitate to that kind of content.”
