Bigg Boss Telugu Season 7, hosted by Akkineni Nagarjuna, has kicked off with high expectations. Notably, stars such as Vijay Deverakonda and Naveen Polishetty made special appearances at the launch event to promote their respective films.
In the first episode of Bigg Boss, Nagarjuna welcomed Vijay Deverakonda and playfully inquired about the whereabouts of Samantha, who was his co-star in the film “Kushi.”
However, some Akkineni fans on social media have taken this as an opportunity to criticize Samantha, suggesting that her absence from the show is due to issues with her ex-husband, Naga Chaitanya. They argue that Nagarjuna displayed generosity and humility by mentioning Samantha, while she failed to show the minimum courtesy by not attending the event.
It’s important for Akkineni fans to understand that Samantha’s absence from the show is primarily due to her health issues. She has been in the United States for an extended period, undergoing treatment. Despite her health challenges, she is making efforts to promote her film “Kushi” from the US in whatever ways she can. It’s unfounded to claim that Samantha avoided the Bigg Boss event because of her past association with the Akkineni family.
