Actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu has officially married filmmaker Raj Nidimoru in a private ceremony, and the news has quickly taken over social media. The wedding, kept under wraps until the last moment, has become one of the most talked-about celebrity events of the year. Fans and industry followers were caught by surprise, especially considering both Samantha and Raj’s widely discussed personal lives in recent years.
Speculation began late last night after unconfirmed reports hinted that the couple was preparing to marry. Adding to the speculation, Raj Nidimoru’s ex-wife Shhyamali Dey shared a quote on Instagram that read, “Desperate people do desperate things.” Followers interpreted the message as a subtle reaction to the upcoming wedding.
A Private Ceremony in Coimbatore
According to HT City, the couple married on Monday morning at the Ling Bhairavi Temple inside the Isha Yoga Centre near Coimbatore. The ceremony was small and closely guarded, with around 30 guests in attendance, consisting mainly of close family and friends. Samantha was reported to have worn a striking red saree for the occasion.
Soon after the ceremony, Samantha confirmed the news by posting a carefully selected set of photos on Instagram. The images showed the ring exchange, glimpses of the couple’s wedding outfits, and a full post-ceremony portrait. She captioned the post with the date of the wedding: “01.12.2025.” Her red saree paired with intricate gold jewellery drew widespread praise.

Wishes poured in from fans, colleagues, and well-wishers across the internet. Samantha and Raj Nidimoru were rumoured to be dating since late 2024, with Samantha occasionally sharing posts featuring him on her Instagram, though she never confirmed the relationship publicly. With the wedding now official, the couple has made their relationship public in a definitive and celebratory way.
The marriage has quickly become a major moment in the entertainment world, and fans are eagerly waiting for more official photos and updates from the newlyweds.
