The Private Wedding of the Year

In a move that has delighted fans across the country, actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu and filmmaker Raj Nidimoru tied the knot in a private ceremony on December 1, 2025. The wedding took place at the serene Isha Foundation's Linga Bhairavi Temple in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, in a Bhuta Shuddhi Vivaha ceremony.

After months of speculation about their relationship, Samantha and Raj made their romance Instagram official by sharing beautiful wedding pictures on social media. The caption was simple yet meaningful: "🤍01.12.2025🤍."

A Traditional Affair

The couple opted for traditional attire for their special day. Samantha looked ethereal in a red silk saree, paired with intricate gold jewelry and her hair styled in a neat bun with white flowers. Raj complemented her look in a white kurta with churidar pyjama, layered with a beige Nehru jacket. Their traditional yet elegant attire perfectly suited the spiritual ambiance of the wedding venue.

The ceremony was attended by only 30 close family and friends, making it an intimate affair. According to a statement issued by the Isha Foundation, the wedding took place at the Linga Bhairavi Devi temple within the Isha Yoga Centre.

From Colleagues to Life Partners

Samantha and Raj's relationship blossomed from their professional collaboration. They first worked together on the Prime Video series "The Family Man" season two, where Samantha starred as an actor and Raj served as director. Their creative chemistry extended beyond the screen, leading to their personal relationship.

The couple has continued their professional partnership, with Samantha set to star in the Netflix series "Rakt Brahmand: The Bloody Kingdom," where Raj is on board as co-creator and producer. They are also co-producing the upcoming Telugu action drama "Maa Inti Bangaram," directed by Nandini Reddy.

Raj was married to Shhyamali De between 2015 and 2022.
