Sobhita Dhulipala and Naga Chaitanya recently got engaged in an intimate ceremony in Hyderabad this August. As whispers circulate about their upcoming wedding during the next wedding season, rumors are also emerging regarding the Akkineni family’s views on Sobhita’s career choices.
Known for her bold photoshoots, Sobhita has reportedly begun turning down opportunities in glamour and lifestyle photography. After her engagement, she has been frequently traveling between Hyderabad and Mumbai to spend time with Naga and his family. Recent reports from M9 News suggest that the Akkineni family may not fully support her work preferences, raising questions about how Sobhita will navigate her professional life moving forward.
Speculation around the Akkineni family dynamics has been fueled by the history of Naga Chaitanya’s previous marriage to Samantha. After their divorce in late 2021, there were claims that the family disapproved of Samantha’s choice to take on “hot roles” and dance numbers. This reportedly created a rift, as Naga did not align with Samantha during that period. Following their split, Samantha made headlines with her performance in the racy song “Oo Anatava” from Pushpa, sparking significant buzz over her bold image. She later stated that while she hadn’t taken on such roles in the past, she wouldn’t pursue them again in her career.
As Sobhita and Naga embark on this new chapter together, it remains to be seen how she will balance her aspirations with family expectations.
