Samantha Akkineni and Naga Chaitanya are one of those Tollywood couples who have our hearts. After dating each other for a few years, Sam and Chay (as their fans and loved ones call them) walked down the aisle on October 6, 2017, after getting engaged on January 29, 2017. Their wedding was a grand destination one at the W Goa hotel in Bardez, Goa. (You May Also Like: Vicky Kaushal Calls Deepika Padukone 'Bhabhi', She Gets Annoyed And Ranveer Enacts Wedding Pheras)
After their wedding, when Samantha was asked if her life post-marriage has changed, she was quoted as saying, “Chay and I have a very normal approach to things; from writing our provision list to deciding the menu for dinner, to seeing if everything is there at home. Day-to-day activities are organised by us. I like to do that at home”.
For the ones who don’t know, Chay has a kissing scene in his upcoming movie, Majili. In an interaction with Film Companion, when Samantha was asked about Naga’s liplock scene with his co-star, Divyansha Kaushik in their film, Majili, she remarked, "People have to understand that Chay and I have an amazing relationship, amazing friendship and an amazing marriage. There is a line between what is acting and what is real. For me, a kiss or a hug is the same thing when I'm acting. That's something I really want to tell the fans that it's the same rule for both of us. I'm married and he's married too. The differences don't make sense.”
Recently, on Famously Filmfare, Samantha had talked about the times when things didn’t work out between them. The Tollywood actress was quoted as saying, “It took us eight years to be at the same point. Because there were times when I really liked him, and he was not in that space. And there were times when we wanted to work it out, but external factors. It took us a very long time to be in the same space.” (Also Read: Suyyash Rai Calls Wife Kishwer Merchantt 'Chudail' And Her Reaction Is Epic In This Funny Video)
Sometime back, there were rumours that Samantha and Naga are expecting their first baby. But in an interview with Film Companion, Samantha rubbished such reports and was quoted as saying, “I have put a date as to when I want my baby. The date has been fixed! Like, as if that’s going to happen according to the date we have fixed! But Chay (Naga Chaitanya) seems to be certain that it will happen on the assigned date!”

When she was asked more about how she would manage motherhood and professional life once there is a baby, the Super Deluxe actress had replied, “When I have a child, that child is going to be my universe. I had the greatest respect for working mothers. My childhood was not very rosy. For all adults, who haven’t had a very rosy childhood, the first thing they will tell you is that they want to give their child everything that they did not have. That’s something that has stuck with me. So I think the first few years after I have a child, I would not be anywhere. That child will be everything for me”.

After Sam and Chay’s wedding, there were reports that the former might quit acting. Dismissing such baseless reports, Naga Chaitanya told a media portal, “Sam won’t quit films as she is super busy with multiple projects currently. She may take a break, but she won’t quit now”. And before their wedding, when he was asked if Sam would continue working after marriage, the supportive husband had said, “Whether she chooses to do one film or ten is entirely her choice. But she will continue with her career after marriage”.
Well, there is no denying the fact that Samantha and Naga make one of the most understanding couples. Isn't it amazing?
