Everybody loves a good celebrity wedding. And this week, rumours of filmmaker Raj Nidimoru and actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu have sparked major buzz. Talks of their supposed wedding were first confirmed by Filmibeat, who noted that the couple is likely to exchange vows on Monday, December 1, 2025, which is believed to be an intimate ceremony at the Isha Yoga Centre in Coimbatore.
Still, neither Samantha nor Raj has said a word. Adding fuel to the fire is Raj's ex-wife, Shhyamali De's, Instagram post with a cryptic message reading, "Desperate people do desperate things." Until there is official confirmation from the couple, fans can only speculate.
Raj Nidimoru is a famous Indian-American filmmaker, screenwriter, and producer, who has been applauded for his iconic digital storytelling in India with his web series and films. Raj is popularly known as one of the two creators of the creative duo of Raj & DK, together with Krishna DK.
