Raj Nidimoru married writer Shhyamali De in 2015.

What Shhyamali said

Taking to her Instagram Stories, Shhyamali wrote: “Anyone looking for any drama and breaking news. You won't find it here. Urge you to leave. Not looking for attention, media coverage, exclusive interviews, brand promotions, paid partnerships, sympathy. Not trying to sell anyone anything.”

Earlier, Shhyamali had shared a note, which read, “I spent a sleepless night, tossing and turning and debating and realised it would be ungrateful and churlish to not acknowledge all the good that is coming to me.”
