Samantha Ruth Prabhu’s Instagram post sparks wedding speculations

Samantha Ruth Prabhu, currently enjoying the success of her debut production “Subham,” has ignited a wave of speculation on social media after posting an affectionate Instagram update featuring filmmaker Raj Nidimoru.

The post, shared on Wednesday, May 14, 2025, celebrates the warm reception of “Subham,” a horror-comedy released on May 9 under her banner, Tralala Moving Pictures. However, it was the inclusion of two particularly intimate photos with Nidimoru that caught fans’ attention—and fueled rumors of a possible wedding later this year.

Cozy moments go viral

The Instagram carousel featured behind-the-scenes glimpses from “Subham,” a heartfelt video of Samantha’s mother, Ninette Prabhu, applauding her daughter’s cameo, and notably, two photos with Raj Nidimoru. In one image, Samantha is seen resting her head on Nidimoru’s shoulder during a flight; in another, the two pose closely for a warm selfie.

Captioning the post, Samantha wrote: “Thank you for watching, feeling and celebrating #SUBHAM with us! Our very first step—fuelled by heart, madness and the belief that new, fresh stories matter! We are @tralalamovingpictures.”

Fans quickly interpreted the post as a possible “soft launch” of a romantic relationship, with many speculating that the duo could be heading toward marriage. The affectionate nature of the images has sparked a flurry of comments and theories across social platforms.

Relationship rumors and complexities

While the rumors have gained traction, neither Samantha nor Raj Nidimoru has publicly confirmed a relationship or future wedding plans. Adding further complexity, Nidimoru is reportedly married to Shhyamali De, with whom he shares a daughter. De had previously posted a romantic Valentine’s Day message to him in 2023, raising questions about the current status of their relationship.

Samantha, who was married to actor Naga Chaitanya until their divorce in 2021, has largely kept her personal life private since the split. Her focus in recent years has been on rebuilding her career and exploring new creative avenues, including producing.

Wedding is a hot topic

Subham, directed by Praveen Kandregula and creatively produced by Nidimoru, features Samantha in a minor role and marks a significant milestone as her first project under Tralala Moving Pictures. The film’s positive reception has been celebrated across the industry, even as the personal life of its producer takes center stage in public discourse.

As Subham continues its theatrical run, speculation about Samantha and Raj Nidimoru’s relationship—and a potential wedding announcement later in 2025—remains a hot topic among fans and media alike.
