What Rs 250 crore? Samantha Ruth Prabhu’s SHOCKING revelation on divorce alimony from Naga Chitanya
Actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu made her debut appearance on 'Koffee With Karan 7' where she opened up on her much-talked-about divorce with Naga Chaitanya.
Southern actress Samantha Prabhu along with Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar will be seen gracing the couch on Karan Johar’s chat show ‘Koffee with Karan Season 7’ in the latest episode.
The two will be seen entertaining the audience with their amazing humour and outstanding chemistry. On the show, the two actors were seen speaking about their respective journeys in the film industry and spoke about their personal lives.
Samantha, who announced her separation from her husband Naga Chaitanya last year, called the reports that suggested she received a mammoth amount as an alimony from her ex-husband Naga Chaitanya. Host KJo asked Samantha about the worst rumour that she heard about herself to which she replied with a joke saying, “Should I start alphabetically?”
She called out the reports about her alimony stating, “That I took 250 crores in alimony. Every morning I woke up waiting for income tax officials to show them there’s nothing. First they made up the story about alimony. Then they realised it doesn’t seem like a believable story. Then they said there’s a prenup, so she can’t ask for alimony.”
Samantha also corrected the host when he addressed Naga Chaitanya as her ‘husband’. She intervened and said ‘ex-husband’.
On her divorce and making it public, she said, “I could not complain about it as I chose to reveal a lot of my life to the public. When the separation happened, I could not be too upset about it because they invested in my life and it was my responsibility to have the answers, which I didn’t have at that point. I came out of it ok.”

Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Naga Chaitanya, who worked together in films like ‘Manam’, ‘MajiliYe Maaya Chesave’ and ‘Autonagar Surya’, got married in 2017 after dating each other for several years. However, in Octoer 2021, the duo broke hearts of millions of their fans after they announced their separation on social media in a joint statement.
“To all our well-wishers. After much deliberation and thought Sam 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 the difficult time and give us the privacy we need to move on. Thanking you for your support,” their statement read.
Speculations about their rift first started when Samantha Prabhu Ruth dropped her surname Akkineni on social media in July last year and also stopped posting photos with Naga.
On the work front, Samantha will soon be seen in ‘Shaakuntalam’, ‘Yashoda’ and ‘Kushi’. She made her OTT debut with ‘The Family Man 2’, which released last year.
