Naga Chaitanya opened up about his relationship with Sobhita Dhulipala on the Raw Talks With VK podcast. He said, “I feel very bad for her (Sobhita). She doesn’t deserve it. She is not at fault in this matter. She came into my life… we met in a very organic way, beautiful way. Just like social media chat on Instagram, our friendship started and our relationship was slowly built from there.”

Naga Chaitanya clarified that Sobhita Dhulipala had no role in his divorce from Samantha Ruth Prabhu. Speaking on Raw Talks With VK, he said, “She has not been connected to my past in any way at all… I feel very bad for her but at the same time, I have to thank her very much. She’s very understanding and patient. With so much maturity she navigated through all this. She is, in fact, a true hero for me in so many ways. To face this is not easy.”

Naga Chaitanya reveals about his divorce from Samantha Ruth Prabhu said, “It was for the betterment of whoever was involved in the marriage… Whatever the decision was, it was a very conscious decision after much thought and with a lot of respect for the other person. I’m saying this because it’s a very sensitive topic for me. I come from a broken family. I’m a child from a broken family so I know what the experience is like. I will think 1000 times before breaking a relationship because I know the repercussions… It was a mutual decision…”

He stated, “It’s not like it happened overnight for me to feel down. I feel bad that it happened but everything happens for a reason. You build yourself, you keep progressing and you will find the right path soon. That’s happened to me.”

He added that he is happy to have found love again and mentioned that both he and Samantha have moved on.
