Not Going Anywhere
Now, the actress has herself clarified that she is not going anywhere and will stay in Hyderabad itself. She will be staying at a flat in Gachibowli where she used to live with Naga Chaitanya.

She is happy and comfortable living in the house. Even Naga Chaitanya has no issues over the actress staying in the house. He had left the house months ago and staying with his parents.

Meanwhile, Samantha's father was shocked to hear the news of her separation. He reportedly hoped that things would improve soon although he was convinced that his daughter would have given a lot of thought over her decision.

On the other hand, speculations have been doing rounds that Samantha has refused to take alimony from the Akkinenis. It is rumoured that she was offered Rs 200 crore as part of a divorce settlement, but she refused to take it from this marriage.

Naga Chaitanya and Samantha were good friends for years after making their acting debut with Yee Maaya Chesaave. They took their relationship to the next level by tying the knot in 2017 after getting approval from both their families.
