Samantha-Raj Married! Explore 5 Other Top Actor–Director Weddings

So, Samantha Ruth Prabhu and director Raj Nidimoru finally made it official, and honestly, the whole thing feels sweet and almost sudden. She dropped a couple of calm, intimate wedding photos on Instagram with just “🤍01.12.2025🤍,” and that was enough to set everyone buzzing. Within minutes, the comment section filled up. Upasana Kamineni went full excitement mode, calling it the best news ever, while Sneha Reddy and Lavanya Tripathi added soft, simple wishes. Even Sushmita Konidela jumped in with her warm note.

Their wedding now slides into that small category of actor–director pairings that always get people talking. Nayanthara and Vignesh Shivan were the most talked about in recent years, and now Samantha and Raj join that lane pretty smoothly. Fans like these combinations because both sides understand the same madness of filmmaking, so it feels like the relationship comes with a built-in comfort zone.

This isn’t exactly rare, though. The South film industry has had a few such marriages long before Instagram made everything louder. Ramya Krishna married Krishna Vamsi, and Kushboo married Sundar C, both couples still holding steady. Bollywood has its own list too: Yami Gautam with Aditya Dhar, and Rani Mukerji with Aditya Chopra. Somehow, actor–director pairings just make sense; maybe they don’t have to explain their world to each other.

A funny thing online folks noticed today: all the women from the celeb circle rushed to comment, but the big Tollywood guys, Ram Charan, Allu Arjun, Mahesh Babu, Jr.NTR and others she worked with, haven’t popped up yet. They’re probably caught up somewhere and will slide in later. For now, the moment belongs to Samantha and Raj, and the internet is happily soaking in their new beginning.
