Naga Chaitanya wants to work with Priyanka Chopra, Alia Bhatt; reveals his 1st celeb crush was on THIS Bollywood beauty

After making it big in the South film industry, actor and heartthrob Naga Chaitanya set out to make his debut in Hindi cinema with Aamir Khan, Kareena Kapoor Khan and Mona Singh starrer Laal Singh Chaddha . Sadly the film failed to do well at the box office and also fell prey to the boycott trend on social media. However, Chaitanya was lauded for his performance as Laal’s army friend Balaraju Bodi aka Bala. Some even felt that the Hindi remake surpassed Forrest Gump, the original film.

Fans are now hoping to see more of Chay in Hindi films and the actor himself hopes to explore more of Bollywood in the coming times. In a recent chat with Pinkvilla, he even opened up about the actresses he hopes to work with one day. When asked to name one, he replied, “One? There are many! There are many actresses. First is Alia Bhatt , I love her perfromance. Always like looked up to Priyanka Chopra 's work so yeah, Kareena ma'am.. Everyone! I mean there are too many. The list goes on, Katrina Kaif I find her really beautiful. But yeah, the list goes on.”

Much to our delight, Chay also revealed who was his first celebrity crush-- former Miss Universe and Bollywood beauty Sushmita Sen . When asked if he ever met her and got the chance to tell her, the actor smiled and replied yes. He went on to share that Kartik Aaryan could star in the Hindi remake of his film 100% Love while Ranbir Kapoor would fit perfectly into the remake of Manam.

On the work front, up next Naga Chaitanya will be seen in a horror thriller web series titled Dootha. He also has Venkat Prabhu’s upcoming bilingual film in his kitty, which will mark his Tamil debut. We wish him only the best as we eagerly wait to see him back in his next Hindi film!
