Both of us have moved on in life: Naga Chaitanya
Meanwhile, Tollywood star Naga Chaitanya, in a latest interview, had mentioned that has a massive respect for the phase of his life when he was hitched to Samantha Ruth Prabhu. He further went on to call Samantha a lovely person before adding that both of them have moved on in life.
Naga Chaitanya told ETimes, “She is a lovely person and deserves all happiness. It is only when the media speculates that things get awkward between us. In the public eye, that mutual respect is taken away. That’s what I feel bad about.”
“They bring in a third party, someone who is not connected to my past to create headlines out of that. It is very disrespectful to the third party whom they are unnecessarily involving with my past,” said Naga.
