The video went viral since he posted it and it caught Samantha’s attention. The actor, known for being a fitness freak, took the reel in stride, commenting, “The gym in the background almost convinced me.” After she commented, Mukesh shared that Samantha ‘made his day’ and that he will always be her fan. “If the world is against Samantha, then I am against the world,” he wrote on Instagram Stories.

Samantha, Naga Chaitanya’s divorce

Samantha and Chaitanya dated for years before getting engaged in Hyderabad and married in Goa. The former couple married in 2017 and divorced in 2021 due to unknown reasons. They announced their separation on Instagram after months of speculation. Since then, Samantha has been open about how she struggled to come to terms with it.

Chaitanya has since moved on and got engaged to Sobhita on August 8 this year at his residence in Hyderabad. Nagarjuna announced the news on X (formerly Twitter), sharing pictures from the engagement. Sobhita also shared pictures with Chaitanya and a heartfelt poem describing their relationship.
