Samantha Ruth Prabhu has once again grabbed everyone’s attention due to her personal life. Her latest Instagram post has fans convinced that she’s made her relationship with filmmaker Raj Nidimoru official. The two have been rumoured to be dating for months, but their latest appearance together seems to confirm the buzz.
Samantha Ruth Prabhu And Raj Nidimoru Share A Tight Hug In New Photo
In the now-viral photo, Samantha is seen hugging Raj tightly while he holds her by the waist. The picture was clicked at the launch event of her new perfume brand, Secret Alchemist. Fans couldn’t stop talking about their chemistry. Many even called it Samantha’s “soft launch of love.”
Alongside the picture, Samantha shared a heartfelt message about her personal and professional journey. She wrote, “Surrounded by friends and family. Over the last year and a half, I’ve taken some of the boldest steps in my career. Taking risks, trusting my intuition, and learning as I go. Today, I’m celebrating the small wins.”
She added, “I’m so grateful to be working with some of the brightest, hardest-working, and most authentic people I’ve met. With a lot of faith, I know this is just the beginning. @secret.alchemist.”
Though her post was mainly about celebrating her brand launch, fans were quick to notice her warm bond with Raj. The moment has sparked fresh dating rumours, reigniting speculation about their relationship.
Samantha and Raj first collaborated on The Family Man 2, where she played the role of Raji. They later worked together again on Citadel: Honey Bunny. Their growing bond during these projects reportedly brought them closer, both personally and professionally.
Over the past year, Samantha has shared several photos with Raj on Instagram, often accompanied by supportive captions. Neither of them has publicly confirmed their relationship, but their frequent appearances together (from industry events to quiet getaways) have kept fans curious.
Both Samantha and Raj have also experienced high-profile separations. Samantha was married to actor Naga Chaitanya from 2017 to 2021, while Raj separated from his wife, Shhyamali De, in 2022. Their shared experiences and mutual respect seem to have strengthened their connection.
Their Work Front
On the work front, Samantha is once again teaming up with Raj and DK for their upcoming web series Rakt Bramhand: The Bloody Kingdom. The show stars Aditya Roy Kapur, Ali Fazal, Wamiqa Gabbi, and Jaideep Ahlawat, and is set to release in 2026.
Meanwhile, Raj and DK are ready with The Family Man 3, featuring Manoj Bajpayee and Jaideep Ahlawat, which will stream on Prime Video from November 21.
