Ending weeks of speculation, actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu has married filmmaker Raj Nidimoru, according to a Hindustan Times report.

A source told the outlet that “the wedding happened at the Ling Bhairavi Temple inside the Isha Yoga Centre early morning.”

Samantha, dressed in a red saree, tied the knot in an intimate ceremony attended by around 30 guests.

The actress had all but confirmed her relationship with Raj last month after sharing photos from the launch of her perfume brand, where she was seen posing closely with the filmmaker—who previously directed her in The Family Man.

In the now-viral photos, Samantha wore a lace bralette and high-waisted pants as she celebrated what she called “small wins” in her personal and professional journey.

Raj Nidimoru, one half of the director duo Raj & DK, co-directed the spy-thriller Citadel: Honey Bunny, featuring Samantha in a leading role.

The actress is currently shooting for Rakt Brahmand: The Bloody Kingdom, co-starring Aditya Roy Kapur, with Raj reportedly involved in the project as well.
