Last October, Naga Chaitanya and Samantha ended their 4-year long marriage and announced separation. The couple shared a note that read "To all our well wishers, After much deliberation and thought, Chay and I have decided to part ways as husband and wife to pursue our own paths. We are fortunate to have a friendship of over a decade that was the very core of our relationship which we believe will always hold a special bond between us. We request our fans, well-wishers and the media to support us during this difficult time and give us the privacy we need to move on. Thanking you for your support (sic).â
Now, Naga Chaitanya has revealed how his father Nagarjuna reacted when he first spoke to him about his divorce with Samantha. "The first person that I told was my father. The minute he heard the news, he looked at me and said, 'You're telling me this now but I've known all along," the actor had told The New Indian Express.
Well, it is very much evident that Nagarjuna was very much bewildered after Chaitanya spoke to him about the divorce. Nagarjuna was then quoted saying "I am very proud of how calm Chaitanya remained through it all. He was not provoked into uttering a single word. Like any father, I was very worried about him. But he was more worried about me than I was about him. He would ask me, 'You okay, Dad?' and I'd be like, errr, 'Isn't that what I should be asking you?â in his interaction with Film Companion.
In the meanwhile, Samantha too has been having a tough time, dealing with the divorce "I think I am done speaking about it. It was important to speak about it and I have addressed it but I don't think it is necessary to keep on repeating that, again and again. I thought I was a much weaker person. I thought that with my separation, I would crumble and die. I didn't think I was capable of being this strong...Today I'm very very proud of how strong I'm because I really didn't know I was."As soon as you accept the fact that you are going through, something, half of the healing is done. Accepting, vocalising, and fighting back is what I did. I was under a lot of mental pressure and trauma after taking a huge decision pertaining to my life. It wasn't easy to get over it. I took help from my friends, family, and doctors to recover from the same." Samantha said about the divorce recently.
