Samantha reacts to rumours of promoting Yeh Maaya Chesave ahead of re-release
Actor Samantha Ruth Prabhu has firmly denied speculation that she will reunite with her ex-husband, actor Naga Chaitanya, to promote the upcoming re-release of their 2010 romantic drama 'Ye Maaya Chesave'. The film, which holds significant value in both actors' careers and personal histories, is set to re-release in theatres on July 18, 15 years after its original debut.In a recent interview with Bollywood Hungama, Samantha addressed the rumours directly. 'No, I am not promoting 'Ye Maaya Chesave' with anyone. In fact, I'm not promoting the film at all,' she said. Reacting to fans' hopes of seeing the lead pair together again, she added, 'I don't know where this talk is coming from. Maybe fans of the film want to see the lead pair together. But one can't live one's life through the audience's lensing of life.''Ye Maaya Chesave' not only launched Samantha into stardom in Telugu cinema but also marked the beginning of her relationship with Naga Chaitanya. The couple fell in love during the shoot, got married in 2017, and eventually parted ways in 2021. Reflecting on the film, Samantha said, 'I really remember every single shot. The first shot I did for that film was at the gate, with my character Jessie meeting Karthik (Naga Chaitanya) for the first time. And I remember everything about it—every single detail. It was fantastic working with Gautham Menon, who knew exactly what he wanted.'advertisementWhile their off-screen love story had a fairytale beginning, things didn't unfold as dreamily as expected. Post-divorce, Samantha had shared on Koffee with Karan in 2022 that her equation with Naga Chaitanya was far from cordial, remarking, 'If you put us both in a room, you have to hide sharp objects? Yeah. As of now, yes.'
Naga Chaitanya and Sobhita Dhulipala got engaged on August 8, 2024. On December 4, the two got married at Annapurna Studios in Hyderabad in the presence of family members and friends.Must Watch

Last Updated: Directed by Nelson Dilipkumar, Jailer 2 picks up from where the original left off, chronicling the journey of Tiger Muthuvel Pandian, the fierce former jail warden (Rajinikanth). Rumours were rife that Shah Rukh Khan would make a cameo appearance in Jailer 2, the much-anticipated sequel to Rajinikanth's 2023 blockbuster. However, fans may have to hold off on their excitement. According to an update by the X handle Box Office South India, SRK is not part of Jailer 2 and will not be seen in any role in the film. While this clarification puts an end to speculation around Shah Rukh Khan, the buzz around Jailer 2 continues, with strong whispers that a prominent Bollywood star is indeed joining the cast. Though the name hasn't been revealed yet, the team is reportedly planning to make a formal announcement soon. Directed by Nelson Dilipkumar, Jailer 2 picks up from where the original left off, chronicling the journey of Tiger Muthuvel Pandian, the fierce former jail warden played by Rajinikanth. The first film showcased Muthuvel's revenge arc, but later transitioned into a gripping heist thriller, featuring surprise cameos by Mohanlal, Shiva Rajkumar, and Jackie Shroff. The sequel is expected to bring back these characters, with additional star power. Reports suggest that Telugu superstar Nandamuri Balakrishna might make a special appearance, while Nagarjuna Akkineni is being considered for the role of the main antagonist, although that hasn't been confirmed yet. Rajinikanth, last seen in the action drama Vettaiyan, is currently busy wrapping up his next film Coolie with director Lokesh Kanagaraj. Scheduled for release on August 14, 2025, Coolie also stars Nagarjuna Akkineni and Upendra Rao in pivotal roles. Interestingly, while Shah Rukh Khan isn't a part of Jailer 2, Coolie will feature a special cameo by Bollywood icon Aamir Khan, along with appearances by Shruti Haasan, Soubin Shahir, and a dance number by Pooja Hegde. With so many big names in the mix, Jailer 2 is shaping up to be yet another star-studded spectacle. While fans may be disappointed about SRK's absence, the excitement around the film remains sky-high. First Published: June 18, 2025, 22:03 IST
