Naga Chaitanya was speaking at a program to mark the completion of his latest movie outing 'Bangarraju'. The movie starring his father Nagarjuna, and directed by Kalyan Krishna, is slated for theatrical release on January 14 coinciding with the Sankranti festival. The movie also stars Kriti Shetty.

Samantha and Naga Chaitanya got married in October 2017. The duo had announced their seperation in October last year. The duo took to their respective social media accounts and issued statements which read, “After much deliberation and thought, (we) have decided to part ways as husband and wife to pursue our own paths.”

The announcement on social media, coming four days ahead of their fourth wedding anniversary had led to much curiosity in public and media circles. So far, both of them have not divulged the reasons for their split. However, a BollywoodLife report claimed Chaitanya’s family were not pleased with Samantha’s decision to do pursue bold roles.  

While Naga Chaitanya's last movie 'Love Story' directed by Sekhar Kammula, did well at the box-office, Samantha's item number in Allu Arjun-starrer 'Pushpa' has become a national sensation. Both of them, separately, have several movie projects lined up in the days ahead.
