No, Samantha Did Not Get Rs 250 Cr in Alimony!

MUMBAI, (ANI) – Samantha Prabhu, on the third episode of ‘Koffee with Karan Season 7’ called the reports that suggested she took alimony of Rs 250 crores from her ex-husband Naga Chaitanya “made up”.

Samantha marked her debut on Karan Johar’s chat show alongside Akshay Kumar. She was asked about the worst rumor she heard about herself? to which Samantha replied, “Should I start alphabetically?” She further went on to say, “That I took 250 crores in alimony. Every morning I woke up waiting for income tax officials to show them there was nothing. First, they made up the story about alimony. Then they realized it doesn’t seem like a believable story. Then they said there’s a prenup, so she can’t ask for alimony.”

The ‘Makkhi’ actor in the year 2021, announced her separation from her husband and actor Naga Chaitanya after being married for four years. She said there were still hard feelings about her divorce from Naga Chaitanya, but she hopes it will change in the future.

She also said she is not ready to fall in love once again. “It has been hard but it’s good now. It’s fine, I am stronger than I have ever been,” she said.

She has been at the receiving end of trolls ever since she along with Naga Chaitanya announced their separation last year.

Reacting to the trolls she received post-separation, Samantha said, “Yeah, so I couldn’t really complain about it because I chose that path, I chose to be transparent and I chose to reveal a lot of my life and when the separation happened, I couldn’t be too upset about it because they invested in my life and it was my responsibility to have answers, which I didn’t at that point of time and I think I came out of it okay. Better than okay.”

The third episode ended on a happy note, with the ‘Atrangi Re’ actor winning the quirky rapid-fire round with 83 percent votes of the live audience and Samantha winning the buzzer round.
