Naga and Samantha announced their separation in October 2021. Since then, a lot has been written about their relationship.
Recently, when Nagarjuna was asked how he reacts to everything that is written about his son’s personal life, he said his priority is his son Naga Chaitanya’s happiness. He told Pinkvilla, “He is happy, that’s all I see. That’s good enough for me. It’s an experience that happened to him. Unfortunate.”
The Telugu superstar also said now that the relationship is over, “we can’t keep moping about it.” He added, “It’s gone. It’s out of our lives. So I hope it will be out of everybody’s life.”
Earlier, Naga Chaitanya had said that he is ‘bored’ with people asking about his divorce. He previously told the publication, “We (Samantha and I) said what we have to. Beyond that, it’s just people trying to fill up columns and there’s nothing else. I mean I’m bored of it.”
While the Thank You star has maintained that he still respects Samantha and looks up to what she’s doing in her career, Samantha had said that for now, the situation between her and her ex-husband is ‘not amicable’.
During her appearance on Koffee With Karan, she said, “Like if you put us both in a room, you have to hide sharp objects? Yeah. As of now, yes.” She added that the situation was not amicable right now “but it maybe sometime in the future”.
The couple got married in 2017 and announced their separation days before their fourth anniversary.
