Actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu and film director Raj Nidimoru recently married on December 1, 2025. The couple held a private and traditional ceremony at the Isha Yoga Center in Coimbatore.
Fans have uncovered details about their engagement, which appears to have taken place months before the wedding. Observations of the actress’s jewelry in old social media posts led to the discovery.
Samantha was first seen wearing a distinctive, large engagement ring in a February 2025 post. This particular photo, shared on February 13, featured her in a pink dress.

At the time, fans speculated in comments that she might be engaged. The same ring was also visible during promotional events in May of the same year.
The presence of the identical ring in her wedding photos confirms that the engagement occurred in February 2025 or even earlier. The couple successfully kept this information private until now.
