The couple, Naga Chaitanya and Sobhita Dhulipala who are set to reportedly tie the knot on December 4, 2024 have been the center of rumours claiming trouble in their relationship ever since a anonymous post on social media went viral. Reports even suggested that Naga Chaitanya’s parents were advising him to reconsider the marriage, after taking a popular astrologer’s prediction into consideration that the couple might not last long. But now it seems wedding preparations are in full swing as actor Nagarjuna recently shared in an interview how happy he is for his son and the new daughter-in-law.
In a recent interview with The New Indian Express, Nagarjuna expressed his happiness about welcoming Sobhita into the Akkineni family. He shared, “I have met her, in fact, I know her before Chaitanya knows her. Very, very wonderful girl, very lovely girl.”
Nagarjuna spoke highly of Sobhita’s individuality and her choices in cinema. “She is also a person who lives on her own terms, in the sense the way the movies she’s done, what she’s done. She could’ve done many, but she is doing what she wants to do. She is very peaceful with that and very content with that,” the Tollywood King added.
He also acknowledged the strong bond between the couple sharing his warmth, “And I see the bond, I see the warmth, I see a very healthy relationship between Sobhita and Chay. And I’m very happy for both of them, especially Chay,” Nagarjuna added.

In the same interview, Nagarjuna revealed his deep admiration for his son Naga Chaitanya, referring to him as his guru and guide. “Naga Chaitanya is actually my guru. He tells me and makes me sit down saying, ‘Calm down, why are you doing this? This is not right.’ He is my go-to person!”
"We are delighted to announce the engagement of our son, Naga Chaitanya, to Sobhita Dhulipala, which took place this morning at 9:42 a.m.!!

When asked if the relationship wasn’t the other way around, Nagarjuna candidly replied, “No, if I am also troubled or be it any problem, because he thinks very practical, any problem with the shoot or any problem with a person, when I ask him, ‘Do you think it is right, what am I doing? Do you think the other way?’ he will give a nice explanation.”
On mentoring his sons, Nagarjuna shared a thoughtful perspective. “Mentoring happens by default. We all mentor each other. I learn from them; they learn from me – how they are behaving, what they’re doing. It’s more of a give and take.” In a lighthearted tone, he added, “I don’t want my son to become like me, I want him to be him!”
Nagarjuna’s heartfelt words have put an end to the speculation, reaffirming the strong relationship between Naga Chaitanya and Sobhita Dhulipala. With their wedding just around the corner, the Akkineni family is ready to celebrate this new chapter with love and positivity.
