Biography

Naga Chaitanya est né le 23 novembre 1986 à Hyderabad. Il est le fils de l'acteur Akkineni Nagarjuna et de Lakshmi Daggubati -issue de la famille Naidu, une famille proéminente dans l'industrie Télougou.
Il emménage à Chennai avec sa mère suite au divorce de ses parents.

Naga Chaitanya a étudié à PSBB School de Chennai où il jouait occasionnellement de la guitare et de la batterie au sein du groupe de l'école. Avant son entrée dans l'industrie télougou, il a suivi des cours d'art dramatique à Mumbai avant de se rendre à l'Hollywood Sudios en Californie où il appris la danse et l'art du combat.

Naga Chaitanya est un grand fan de sports mécaniques et participe occasionnellement à des événements relatifs à cette discipline.

Naga Chaitanya débute sa carrière en 2009 dans le film du jeune réalisateur Vasu Varma, Josh aux côtés de la débutante Karthika Nair -fille de l'actrice Radha. Malgré les mauvaises critiques et le manque d'intérêt du public, la performance du jeune acteur lui vaut le prix du meilleur espoir masculin lors de la 57e cérémonie des Filmfare Award South.

Son second film, Ye Maaya Chesave (2010) , dans lequel il partage l'affiche avec Samantha Ruth Prabu du réalisateur Gautham Menon est la version télougou du film tamoul Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya (2010) -dans lequel il fait d'ailleurs une apparition- et du film Hindi Ekk Deewana Tha (2012).
Ce film lui vaut d'être unanimement acclamé par les critiques et d'être nommé dans la catégorie du meilleur acteur lors de la 58e cérémonie des Filmfare Award South. Le film est un succès au Box Office et le couple qu'il forme à l'écran avec Samantha est apprécié.

En 2011, il rencontre un autre succès grâce au film 100% Love de Sukumar. C'est la première fois qu'il donne la réplique à Tamannaah. Il est nommé dans la catégorie meilleur acteur lors des SIIMA Award pour ce film.

Les deux autres films dans lesquels il tourne en 2011, Dhada d'Ajay Bhuyan et Bejawada de Shiva Krishna produit par Ram Gopal Varma, déçoivent.

Il renoue avec le succès commercial et critique grâce à la réalisation de Kishore Kumar Tadakha, le remake du film tamoul Vettai. C'est la deuxième fois qu'il partage l'affiche avec Tamannaah. L'acteur Sunil y interprète le rôle de son frère aîné.

Samantha une deuxième fois dans le film Autonagar Surya réalisé par Deva Katta.

Il jouera prochainement dans Manam aux côtés de son père et de son grand-père paternel. Ce film sera le troisième dans lequel il tournera avec Samantha.
