Is love in the air for Samantha Ruth Prabhu? The ‘Yeh Maaya Chesave’ star Samantha Ruth Prabhu? Rumours of a romance with her ‘ Citadel: Honey Bunny’ director Raj Nidimoru have been around for some time now. However, the diva recently added fuel to the fire by sharing a cosy picture of them posing in an airplane.
Stepping Into Togetherness?
According to an exclusive report from Pinkvilla, the duo may be contemplating a big step forward in their relationship. An insider close to the situation disclosed that the pair is seriously considering cohabiting. “Samantha and Raj are currently searching for a home they can share. It’s more than just an idea—they’re already moving in that direction emotionally and practically,” the source stated. Raj Nidimoru, who ended his marriage with former wife Shyyamali in 2022, is believed to have found a fresh start and renewed affection while collaborating with Samantha on Citadel.
To clear the air around certain circulating rumors, the source further added, “There’s been confusion about Raj being seen with a young girl, but the child is not his daughter. In fact, Raj doesn’t have a daughter—the girl spotted with him is the daughter of his creative partner, Krishna DK.”
Public Sightings Strengthen Buzz
Fueling the gossip even more, Samantha and Raj were recently seen attending a pickleball event together. Samantha, who co-owns the Chennai Super Champs pickleball team, was not only cheering from the sidelines but was also seen hand-in-hand with Raj. This public display of affection only added momentum to ongoing reports about their closeness, as fans and onlookers couldn’t help but notice their chemistry.
Past Relationships and Fresh Starts
Both Samantha and Raj come into this connection with past relationships that ended in the public eye. Samantha was previously married to actor Naga Chaitanya. The couple tied the knot in 2017 but officially ended their union in 2021 after four years. While both remained private about the reasons behind their split, the announcement took fans by surprise. On the other hand, Raj’s divorce from Shyyamali in 2022 remained low-key but marked the end of another long-standing bond.
Who Exactly Is Raj Nidimoru?
Raj Nidimoru forms one half of the celebrated filmmaking duo, Raj & DK, known for their unique storytelling and quirky narratives. They rose to prominence with the hit horror-comedy Stree and cemented their reputation with streaming successes like The Family Man and Farzi. Both originally hail from Andhra Pradesh—Raj from Tirupati and DK from Chittoor. Their journey began during their time at SVU College of Engineering, where friendship and shared ambition laid the foundation for a dynamic creative partnership. Before venturing into the world of cinema, the two had careers in software engineering in the United States. They made their directorial debut with the 2009 crime comedy 99.
What Lies Ahead?
Raj recently co-directed Citadel: Honey Bunny, which starred Samantha in a thrilling spy role. While the show received initial buzz, its second season has unexpectedly been put on hold. As for Samantha and Raj’s personal equation, only time will tell if this companionship will grow into something lasting—or remain a beautiful chapter in their ongoing stories.
