Naga Chaitanya Ten Films That Changed His Stardom Forever

Tomorrow, Akkineni Naga Chaitanya turns 39. Hard to believe, right? Coming from the Akkineni family, he walked into cinema with Josh back in 2009, that coming-of-age political drama. The film didn’t shake the world, but yeah, it got him out there.

But the real flip happened with Ye Maaya Chesave. Chay as Karthik Naidu basically lived that role. The movie hit differently for the youth. The songs, the mood, the cute fights… everything just clicked. After that, he slowly stacked up hits, 100% Love, Premam, Majili, Love Story, Thandel, proper romantic favourites. And then there were fun ones like Bangarraju, the supernatural drama he shared with Nagarjuna.

And of course, Manam. Honestly, that movie is in a different zone. Three generations of the Akkineni family in one frame, ANR garu, Nagarjuna, and Chay. It’s still a comfort watch for many.

Now he’s gearing up for NC24. The team recently dropped a BTS video, and the visuals look sharp. Little thriller vibe going on. And from the way they’re teasing things, looks like tomorrow they might drop a poster or a teaser. Something is definitely coming.
