Actor Niharika Konidela, niece of megastar Chiranjeevi, recently opened up about her divorce with Chaitanya JV. The couple had a dreamy wedding in Udaipur in 2020. However, a year later, there were rumours that the couple was splitting up. They announced their divorce in July 2023. Niharika, in a recent podcast, with Nikhil Vijayendra Simha opened up about the hurt she experienced after the divorce. Chaitanya has reacted to the podcast, advising the host to not present only one point of view.
In a clip from the podcast, shared by Nikhil, Niharika is seen saying, “I am at a stage in life where I want to focus on myself, I also want to be there for my parents. You can’t be dependent on the wrong person. I’ve been divorced for almost two years now, only I know how much it hurt me.”
She further added, “I am thankful I have a father like Nagababu who said he doesn’t care what anyone thinks and that I’m the best thing to happen to him, I deserve to be happy. My divorce has shown me the value of family. Everyone gets married hoping it’s for a lifetime, but things weren’t what I expected. I am only 30, I haven’t closed off my heart to love. But first, I want to be independent and work on myself before committing to a relationship. For now, I’m single.”
Chaitanya wrote a long note in the comments section. However, he didn’t address Niharika, but the host of the podcast.

Chaitanya started by saying, “Hi Nikhil, I truly appreciate the effort you have made in trying to ward away the unfair negativity on Niharika that is going on lately. I know it is not easy to face it in tandem with dealing with a personal crisis.”
He further wrote, “But you should stop trying to use the reach and platform to indirectly try and attach tags of victim and cause with respect to the marriage. This is the second time this is happening. The pain of things not working out and the process and ordeal of healing is the same for both the ends. The concept of not talking about the divorce, and especially just one side of it, is there to not interfere or rupture that healing again for either of the people involved. Talking about the pain in aftermath and healing is fine, that will help people. In the future instead of an indirect implication of history and fit in words like trust, what will be advised is to have all the parties involved and run through the timeline if you are that keen on knowing and making public aware.”

He ended the comment by writing, “But I totally agree till the fact of it being unfair to judge people without knowing about the complete picture and if that is wrong, then trying indirect messaging through using this platform from one side of the coin is also equally wrong. Hope that is understandable. Thanks”
Chaitanya’s comment invited a plethora of comments of netizens offering their support to him.
