Reportedly naga chaitanya and akhil Akineni entered the telugu film industry as the successors of actor Nagarjuna. Sharing similarities, both actors faced flops in the initial phases of their film careers. akhil akkineni debuted in the lead role in the film akhil whereas naga Chaitanya’s first debut lead role came with the film Josh. Both were commercially unsuccessful at the box office. Sharing the acting genes of nagarjuna, akhil akkineni has been unable to make a name for himself in the film industry. Many fans often wonder why akhil akkineni doesn’t have a naga in his name while his half-brother chaitanya uses one.
Perhaps Akkineni fans have a doubt. A question arises as to why the descendants of the Akkineni family have naga before their names. Clearing this doubt, nagarjuna explained in an interview why his family name before him is ‘Naga’ and Akil Akkineni doesn’t put naga in his first name.
Moreover he said that his mother used to see snakes in her dreams when she was pregnant. Apart from this, they used to perform special pujas to naga Devata. He said that the children born in their family should be named Naga. nageswara rao named his son Nagarjuna. After that nagarjuna named his son naga Chaitanya. The actor also clarified why akhil was not named naga alone. He said that he thought of naming only his first son naga i.e. naga Chaitanya.
