Samantha Ruth Prabhu is currently enjoying the success of her critically acclaimed debut film Subham, but she is also in the news for her personal life because of rumours of a developing romance with renowned director Raj Nidimoru.

She recently posted a fresh batch of images to Instagram with the caption, "New beginnings." Her alleged relationship with Raj Nidimoru, one half of the renowned directing duo Raj & DK, has once again been the subject of speculation following the post, which also marks her first foray as a producer with Subham.

Two of the pictures show Raj; one shows him lounging at home in Hyderabad with Samantha's cherished pet dog, Sasha, and the other shows him taking a nice selfie with Samantha and a mutual friend.


Rumours of a potential romance were stoked when the rumoured couple was recently seen together at the Tirumala Tirupati temple in Andhra Pradesh. Samantha and Raj have not responded to the dating rumours, despite the increasing public interest.

Sharing her excitement about her upcoming project, Samantha captioned the post, “It's been a long road, but here we are. New beginnings @tralalamovingpictures #Subham releases on May 9.” The post also includes candid moments with her close friends—filmmaker Nandini Reddy, actor Rahul Ravindran—and her Subham production team.

Over the years, Samantha and Raj have developed a solid working relationship. They first worked together on the popular television show The Family Man 2, where Samantha's performance won her a lot of praise. Later, they got back together for Citadel: Honey Bunny. Samantha has openly acknowledged Raj & DK for helping her through a trying period in her life, particularly when she was dealing with health issues. She disclosed that just as she was about to turn down Citadel, they urged her to do so.

The two will collaborate once more on their next project, Rakht Brahmand, which has already created a lot of buzz. Samantha's future, both on and off screen, seems full of promise and new beginnings, especially since Subham is out on May 9 and her production career is just getting started.
