Is KTR Responsible For Samantha-Naga Chaitanya's Divorce? Telangana Congress Leader's Big Allegation

Telangana Congress leader and minister Konda Surekha has made serious allegations against former minister and BRS Working President KT Rama Rao, also known as KTR, accusing him of being responsible for the divorce of actors Naga Chaitanya and Samantha.

In a viral video, Surekha claimed that KTR was involved in the couple's separation and further alleged that he had influenced many actors to marry and leave the film industry. She also accused KTR of drug use.

"He took drugs, got addicted, and hosted rave parties. He manipulated their emotions and later blackmailed them," Konda Surekha stated. However, the BRS leader is yet to respond to the allegations.

Warangal East MLA Konda Surekha is currently serving as the Cabinet Minister for Forest and Environment, and Endowments in the Revanth Reddy's government.

Meanwhile, actor Prakash Raj has slammed the Congress leader's comments saying, "What shameless politics... women who act in movies are small?.."

Naga Chaitanya and Samantha were the hottest couple of the Tollywood at one time. After being in love for a few years, they tied the knot in 2017. However, they announced separation in 2021, leaving lakhs of their fans in a state of shock.

In a joint statement, they said, "To all our well-wishers, after much deliberation and thought, Chay and I have decided to part ways as husband and wife to pursue our own paths. We are fortunate to have a friendship of over a decade that was the very core of our relationship which we believe will always hold a special bond between us. We request our fans, well-wishers and the media to support us during this difficult time and give us the privacy we need to move on. Thanking you for your support,"

The romantic journey of the ex-couple began on the sets of 'Ye Maaya Chesave' back in 2009. Although their friendship blossomed over the years, it wasn't until 2014 during the filming of 'Autonagar Surya' that they officially started dating. Their affection for each other was evident as they were frequently seen enjoying outings together.

However, they have moved on in their lives. Notably, Naga Chaitanya got engaged to actress Sobhita Dhulipala in August. Their marriage is likely to be held in December.
