Samantha Ruth Prabhu marries Raj Nidimoru nearly a year after Naga Chaitanya wed Sobhita Dhulipala

Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Raj Nidimoru

Almost one year after Naga Chaitanya’s wedding, Samantha Ruth Prabhu has stepped into a new chapter of her life, sharing the first glimpses of her own wedding with filmmaker Raj Nidimoru.

The couple tied the knot in an intimate morning ceremony at the Ling Bhairavi Temple inside Isha Yoga Centre, surrounded only by close family.

Samantha shared a series of heartfelt photos from the day, radiating joy and contentment. She looked resplendent in a red Banarasi saree, while Raj chose a crisp white kurta-pyjama layered with a Nehru jacket.

Coincidentally, December 4 - almost one year ago - marked a joyful day for Naga Chaitanya, Samantha’s former husband, as he tied the knot with actress Sobhita Dhulipala in Hyderabad.

Nagarjuna Akkineni, the father of the groom and a superstar in his own right, shared official pictures from the wedding, along with an emotional caption: “Watching Sobhita and Chay begin this beautiful chapter together has been a special and emotional moment for me. Congratulations to my beloved Chay, and welcome to the family, dear Sobhita — you’ve already brought so much happiness into our lives.”

Samantha and Naga Chaitanya had announced their divorce in October 2021, describing it as a mutual decision to move forward on separate paths. Since then, both have openly discussed their separation with grace and respect.

Naga Chaitanya emphasised that the choice was personal and that he has moved on happily, while Samantha has reflected on the social stigma surrounding divorce, expressing how she has embraced her new life with courage and optimism.
