Speculation around filmmaker Raj Nidimoru’s personal life continues to fuel gossip columns, as social media activity and public sightings hint at a growing closeness with actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu. While neither Raj—one half of the acclaimed duo Raj & DK—nor Samantha have addressed the rumours, their recent collaborations and social media presence have added fire to the already heated speculation.
Raj’s Wife Shares Mysterious Instagram Story
Adding another layer to the buzz, Raj’s wife, writer Shhyamali De, recently posted a cryptic message on Instagram that many are interpreting as a subtle response to the ongoing chatter. Her story read, “Time exposes, Karma corrects, The Universe Humbles.” The post followed a pattern of spiritually themed content she has been sharing lately, suggesting inner reflection or perhaps a veiled statement.

Shhyamali and Raj tied the knot in 2015, and while reports suggest they may have separated in 2022, there has been no official confirmation. Interestingly, her last public post featuring Raj was as recent as 2023.
Close Collaborations or Something More?
Raj and Samantha’s professional relationship has become increasingly visible, with fans spotting them at various events—including a recent visit to the Tirupati temple—and in playful social media posts. A particular photo of Samantha resting her head on Raj’s shoulder, and a video of them enjoying a game of pickleball together, have only intensified the curiosity around their bond.
Despite claims of them moving in together being refuted by Samantha’s team, online speculation continues, especially since Raj has been a strong presence beside Samantha during promotional events for Subham, a film he co-produced.
Samantha’s Career on the Rise
Professionally, Samantha is enjoying a powerful run. After collaborating with Raj & DK on The Family Man Season 2 and Citadel: Honey Bunny, she is now teaming up with the duo again for the Netflix series Rakt Brahmand: The Bloody Kingdom. Samantha has also launched her production house, Tralala Moving Pictures, through which she debuted as a producer with Subham. Her upcoming ventures include Maa Inti Bangaram, where she takes on the dual role of actress and producer.
While fans wait for an official statement, the mix of cryptic social media posts, joint appearances, and ongoing rumours continues to keep the spotlight firmly on Raj Nidimoru and Samantha Ruth Prabhu.
