Gulshan Devaiah surprised by Samantha-Raj’s wedding

Raj Nidimoru and Samantha Ruth Prabhu married on December 1 and here's how Gulshan Devaiah reacted to the news.

Gulshan mentioned that he was filming with Samantha for director Nandini Reddy’s Maa Inti Bangaram and stumbled upon pictures of her wedding to Raj a couple of days later. He said, “In the midst of this (Maa Inti Bangaram), they got married. I had no idea about the wedding. In fact, I went and filmed with her and returned. Three days later, I saw their pictures.

Samantha and Raj worked together in The Family Man Season 2 (2021) and Citadel: Honey Bunny (2024). In 2023, there was speculation that they were dating, but many dismissed it as Raj was married to Shyamali De, whom he had not publicly announced his separation from. In 2024, speculation intensified after they were frequently spotted together at events, and Samantha began posting pictures with Raj on her social media. It was only on December 1, 2025, that the couple made their relationship official. The couple married at the Isha Foundation in Coimbatore, and Samantha posted pictures of their yogic ceremony on Instagram.
