For all the uninitiated, he is actually making a reference to a role from the grand Akkineni movie, Manam, where Samantha was Naga’s mother in a different life! The film had three generations of the legendary ANR family.
Even Chai’s younger brother took to Twitter to share his happiness: “My brother and my new sister ! I’m the happiest thammudu in the world. Love you guys !”
The couple, who make a handsome pair, took social media by storm with their engagement pictures and videos. Samantha wore a delicately worked gold and white saree specially designed by Kresha Bajaj. While Chaitanya opted for a formal suit.
