More about Samantha and Raj Nidimoru’s wedding

When it comes to the wedding, the couple opted for a Linga Bhairava Vivaha. Samantha’s traditional bridal look was a showstopper. She opted for a red saree by Arpita Mehta, a handwoven Banarasi piece crafted in pure Katan satin silk by a single master artisan. The saree was adorned with delicate powder-zari buttis and a Nishi-woven border, elevated with subtle beige-gold zardozi work featuring saadi taar, cut dana, kasab embroidery, and tiny mirrors.

Raj, meanwhile, opted for a classic traditional look in an ivory kurta set paired with a textured gold jacket. His ensemble was from designer Tarun Tahiliani’s label.

Samantha was married to Naga Chaitanya from 2017 to 2021. Raj married Shhyamali De in 2015, and they are believed to have separated in 2022. In 2024, rumours of them dating first surfaced. Samantha would also often post pictures with Raj, seemingly confirming them. However, they never spoke about their relationship in public.
