Popular actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu has once again found herself in the middle of dating speculations after being spotted with filmmaker Raj Nidimoru at a birthday party. The duo’s recent appearance together has set social media abuzz, with fans and gossip columns dissecting every detail of their outing.

Samantha and Raj Nidimoru were seen attending a friend’s birthday brunch, and a photo from the event quickly went viral. In the picture, Samantha looked radiant in a gorgeous green dress, while Raj kept it casual with a tee and jeans. Their rare public outing immediately reignited rumors about a possible romance.

This sighting comes just a month after they were seen together at a Pickleball tournament, where Samantha was allegedly spotted holding hands with Raj. Fans at the time speculated that there might be something more than friendship brewing between the two.
Adding to the speculation, Samantha had previously shared several photos from the World Pickleball League match on her Instagram. She is the owner of the pickleball team Chennai Super Champs, and at the event, Raj was seen alongside her in multiple pictures.

One particular image caught everyone’s attention—it showed Samantha holding Raj Nidimoru’s hand in a group shot with her entire team. This led to many of her followers wondering if the actress was subtly making her relationship official. While neither Samantha nor Raj has commented on the ongoing dating rumors, the frequent appearances together have only intensified discussions among fans.

For those unfamiliar, Raj Nidimoru is one half of the celebrated filmmaker duo Raj & DK, known for creating some of India’s most critically acclaimed web series and films. Their projects include “The Family Man,” “Farzi,” “Citadel: Honey Bunny,” and “Guns & Gulaabs.” Samantha has previously worked with Raj & DK in “The Family Man 2” and “Citadel: Honey Bunny.” The duo is now collaborating once again on an upcoming project titled “Rakht Brahmand"

Samantha was previously married to actor Naga Chaitanya, but the couple officially parted ways in 2021. Their divorce made headlines across the country, and both actors have since moved on in their respective careers. Recently, it was reported that Naga Chaitanya has married actress Sobhita Dhulipala, further pushing Samantha’s personal life into the limelight.

Despite the ongoing rumors, Samantha has maintained a low profile regarding her personal life and is focusing on her professional commitments. She has several exciting projects lined up, including “Rakht Brahmand,” which will mark her latest collaboration with Raj & DK.

While fans continue to speculate about the nature of her relationship with Raj Nidimoru, neither of them has addressed the rumors directly. Until then, their outings together will likely keep the gossip mills running.
