Controversy

He was accused of being the home breaker in the married life of the South Indian actors Samantha Akkineni and Naga Chaitanya in 2021. Later, Preetham clarified that he treated Samantha like his sister and called her Jiji. [2]India Today He further added,

Everybody knows that I call Samantha ‘Jiji’ which is a north Indian term for sister. How can there possibly be a link-up between us? I’ve known Chaitanya for years. He too knows the kind of relationship that Samantha and I have. I feel that he could’ve spoken up and told people not to comment like that about Sam and me. Even if he had issued one statement, it would have made a lot of difference. Right now, it’s these so-called fans who are making these statements and spreading false rumours. I think a statement from Chaitanya’s side would’ve helped keep these people in check.”

Facts/Trivia

  • During an interview, when he was asked how he thought of becoming a fashion designer. He said,

    I happened to watch a documentary entitled, ‘The True Cost’, which offers an eye-opening journey around the world and into the lives of the many people behind our clothes. It altered my design philosophy, and I decided to shift my fashion line into a sustainable one.”

    He further said,

    As a kid, I loved watching my mother sit on her sewing machine, making shirts for me. While she was away, I would take over the machine and would stitch some baby clothes. I used to have a collage made of all the fashionable stuff I saw, which triggered me to do a degree in Fashion and textiles.”
