The two first met on the sets of Gautham Vasudev Menon’s Telugu romantic-drama Ye Maaya Chesave (2010), and went on to work together in films such as Autonagar Surya and Manam.
Post his engagement, Chaitanya was quoted as saying in agencies. “Wherever I go, I’m asked about my marriage. Honestly, there’s no pressure anymore because everybody knows. I believe this phase... where people constantly want to know about my marriage...it won’t last long. Nobody is going to ask me this question next year.”
Meanwhile, Chaitanya has also confirmed that Samantha intends to continue acting after marriage. When he did admit to being in a relationship in October 2016, he had said then that he won’t stop Samantha from acting after marriage. “I don’t think I’d ever tell her what she should and shouldn’t do. I’m proud of her growth as an actress and I will encourage her to continue working. It was through sheer talent and hard work she got where she is today. I don’t think she should throw away her successful career because of marriage,” Chaitanya said.
Samantha, will be doing a pivotal role in upcoming Telugu horror-comedy Raju Gari Gadhi 2 which also stars her soon-to-be father-in-law and actor Akkineni Nagarjuna. The film is the sequel to 2015 Telugu sleeper hit Raju Garu Gadhi.
