Raj Nidimoru's 2023 Video With Ex-Wife Shhyamali De From Sets Of Samantha Ruth Prabhu’s Show Goes Viral

Samantha Ruth Prabhu married filmmaker Raj Nidimoru in an intimate ceremony at the Isha Yoga Center in Coimbatore on December 1. Their simple, deeply spiritual wedding ceremony followed the ancient Bhuta Shuddhi Vivaha, described as a “consecration of marriages” rooted in yogic tradition. After their marriage, a close friend of Raj’s ex-wife Shhyamali De publicly claimed that the former couple is ‘still married’, fuelling speculations about the legal status of Raj’s previous marriage. While a few reports suggest Raj and Shhyamali got divorced in 2022, netizens dug out an old video from 2023 which showed Raj celebrating the success of Farzi with ex-wife Shhyamali on the sets of Samantha’s show ‘Citadel: Honey Bunny’.

In February 2023, Shhyamali had also shared a Valentine’s Day post for Raj Nidimoru on Instagram.

Meanwhile, a close friend of Shhyamali De, publicly claimed that the former couple is “still married.” The speculation began when Shhyamali shared a cryptic Instagram post featuring an image of a woman with closed eyes, adorned with a striking red bindi and a long streak of sindoor. Over this image, she posted a philosophical verse about karmic bonds, writing, “Through the bond of past debts (runānubandha), one becomes connected with pets, spouse, children, and home… When those karmic debts are exhausted, those relationships come to an end.”

In a dramatic turn, Shhyamali’s friend Bhavna Tapadia reposted the same image and added her own explosive statement: “To all those who are asking me… last time I checked she was still married and the last time was NOW.” Bhavna and Shhyamali follow each other on Instagram. This claim has left netizens stunned, with many questioning whether Raj and Shhyamali ever formally divorced.

Samantha and Raj’s professional journey began with The Family Man 2 (2021), which marked her OTT debut. Since then, they’ve joined forces on Citadel: Honey Bunny (2024) and the upcoming Netflix series Rakt Brahmand: The Bloody Kingdom.
