It takes a lot of courage and strength." Her words reflect the struggles faced by successful female celebrities who choose to end their marriages. Fodder for Gossip Naga Chaitanya and Samantha Ruth Prabhu's wedding in 2017 was like a fairy tale, complete with both Hindu and Christian ceremonies. However, by early 2021, rumours of trouble in their relationship surfaced, and the two soon announced their divorce. Though both issued a joint statement, insisting that the divorce was mutual and amicable, gossipmongers didn't stay quiet. Speculations ranged from claims that Chaitanya's father was displeased with Samantha's bold scenes in The Family Man 2 (2021) to her item number Oo Antava in Pushpa: The Rise (2021). When Samantha appeared on Koffee With Karan, she showcased her characteristic sass. Karan Johar brought up her separation, referring to Chaitanya as her "husband," only for Samantha to correct him with "ex-husband."
