Recently, the actor made headlines after his statements on Samantha-Naga Chaitanya's divorce went viral on social media. Latest reports suggested that he faintly opened up about their split stating that Samantha was the one who filed for divorce as she wanted it. A few media reports even quoted him as saying, "Naga Chaitanya accepted her decision but he was much worried about me, what I would think and what would happen to family's reputation. Naga Chaitanya consoled me very much as he thought I will be worried. They both have been together for 4 years in the marriage life but no problem like this came between them. Both were so close and I don't know how it came down to this decision. They even celebrated 2021's New Year together, it seems that the problems have arisen after that".

Well now, the actor himself has cleared the air regarding his statements calling them false and absolute nonsense. Taking to his Twitter handle, Nagarjuna tweeted, "The news in social media and electronic media quoting my statement about Samantha & Nagachaitanya is completely false and absolute nonsense!! I request media friends to please refrain from posting rumours as news."(sic)
