Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Naga Chaitanya have been making headlines for a long time because of their divorce. The former couple parted ways ahead of their fifth wedding anniversary in October 2021. In an exclusive interview with Etimes, Naga talked about his divorce. He said, ‘Whatever both of us wanted to say, we both put out a statement regarding that. That’s what I have always done with my personal life anyway. Things that I feel are crucial to be shared and put out, I do inform the media about it, whether it’s good or bad. I come out, tell the people about it through a statement and that’s it. In our case, Samantha has moved on, I’ve moved on and I don’t feel the need to inform the world about it, more than that.’ ‘My friends, family and the people who matter, they all know. And you see, news replaces news. All the speculation and conjecture is all very temporary. The more I react to it, the more news it will make. So I just stay chill about it, let it happen and it will all fade away hopefully,’ he added Earlier, Samantha Prabhu also talked about her separation from Naga Chaitanya on ‘Koffee with Karan 7’. She said, ‘Are there hard feelings like if you put us both in a room, you have to hide sharp objects? Yeah, as of now, yes. It's not an amicable situation right now....but maybe sometime in the future.’ The former couple announced their separation with a joint statement later in the year.

Kannada superstar Kichcha Sudeep is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film, ‘Vikrant Rona’ in Mumbai. Salman Khan accompanied the actor during a promotional event. 
During the event, the actors were asked to share their opinion on the North Vs South debate. Kichcha Sudeep said that one must not generalise. Giving an example, he said that many films are made in a year, out of which some do well and the rest don't but that does not mean that South Film Industry is dominating but not Hindi.  
Comparing the scenario to cricket, he said that if Virat Kohli is being out of form for a while and someone else is performing better than him would you say that he is the number one player now? 
Salman who is also a part of the promotions of the pan-India film said that he has been working with a lot of South people. Be it with Kiccha Sudeep, Prakash Raj, Prabhu Deva, and even Venkatesh whose Hindi film 'Anari' was a big hit that featured Karisma Kapoor. 
So, sometimes films work and sometimes they don't. There is no set formula ki 100 per cent yeh hi chalega," he added.
'Vikrant Rona' is scheduled to be released in theatres on 28th July, 2022.

Aamir Khan is busy promoting his upcoming film, ‘Laal Singh Chaddha’ co-starring Kareena Kapoor Khan which is all set to release on August 11. The duo yesterday appeared in the fifth episode of ‘Koffee with Karan 7’.  Host Karan Johar blamed Aamir Khan that he is responsible for the loss of tonality in Bollywood. To which Aamir Khan responded, ‘There's been so much success that some of the South Industry films have offered us in terms of 'Baahubali', then 'RRR', 'KGF', and 'Pushpa' and some of our films that haven't been working. Is there a shift that's happened in our movies recently in terms of like there's a tonality that 'KGF' has or 'Pushpa' has that actually Hindi cinema used to have. We actually let go of it and you're responsible for it.’ Filmmaker Karan countered Aamir Khan and said, ‘In the year 2001 you came up with two films 'Dil Chahta Hai' and 'Lagaan', both had new sensibilities, both had a new syntax in cinema then after that you came up with a film 'Rang De Basanti' in 2006, then you made 'Taare Zameen Par' right after that, with the result you started making a certain audience and filmmakers.’ Aamir reacted, ‘No you're wrong. Those were all heartland films. Those movies had emotions. They reach the common man. It's something that you will emotionally connect to. 'Rang De Basanti' is a very emotional film. It touches the people at grassroots.’ ‘I am not saying make action films or crude films. Make good films with great stories but choose topics that are relevant to most people.’ He concluded. After these statements of Aamir Khan, the ongoing debate on the Pan India movies has also become the talk of the town again.

The actor, who was promoting his film during his interaction with RJ Siddharth Kannan, was asked to describe his rumoured girlfriend Sobhita Dhulipala to which Naga Chaitanya responded, &lsquo;I'm just gonna smile.&rsquo;&nbsp;
Earlier this year, reports of <a href="https://www.editorji.com/entertainment-news/south/naga-chaitanya-on-divorce-with-samantha-ruth-prabhu-all-the-speculation-is-very-temporary-1659334976177">Naga Chaitanya</a> dating 'Made In Heaven' star Shobhita Dhulipala started doing the rounds. He was previously married to Samantha Ruth Prabhu, but the duo called it quits in October 2021.&nbsp;
In a recent interview with ETimes, he talked about his separation from Samantha Ruth Prabhu and said they both have moved on and he doesn't feel the need to inform the world about it, more than that.
Samantha Ruth Prabhu, who was a guest on 'Koffee With Karan' this season, was asked if her equation with Naga Chaitanya is amicable. To which she replied, 'You mean if you put us both in a room, you'd have to hide sharp objects? Yes, as of now but it may be some time in the future.'
In June, Samantha Ruth Prabhu slammed allegations by Naga Chaitanya fans accusing her PR team on spreading rumours about her former husband. In a strongly-worded tweet, Samantha wrote: 'Rumours on girl - Must be true! Rumours on boy - Planted by girl! Grow up guys...Parties involved have clearly moved on... You should move on too. Concentrate on your work... On your families... Move on.'
