Congratulatory messages poured in for the newly married couple from celebrities and fans alike. Anupama Parameswaran, Nimrat Kaur, Dimple Hayathi and several others left love for them under the pictures.
Samantha and Raj’s relationship timeline
While both Samantha and Raj remained mum about their relationship status, there was speculation that they were dating in early 2024. Many were confused because Raj had never announced his separation from his first wife, Shhyamali De, while Samantha had a public divorce from Naga Chaitanya in 2021. The couple soon began being spotted together in public at events, and there were also rumours of them moving in together, though Samantha’s team had denied the news back then.
