The two chose to keep the wedding extremely private and with the blessings of Gods, Goddesses, and close family members. Samantha, who is associated with the preaching of Sadhguru and follows his path, chose to get married at Linga Bhairavi Temple at Isha Yoga Centre on December 1, 2025.

Raj Nidimoru has a daughter with his ex-wife, Shhyamali De. Here's what we know!

Talking about Raj Nidimoru's personal life, he married his ex-wife, Shhyamali De, in 2015. Many people claim that they had a daughter, as some pictures of three surfaced on the internet. Many wondered if Samantha was dating a married man, and some even called her a home wrecker. But in reality, Raj was single when Samantha started dating him. He got divorced from his first wife, Shhyamali, in 2022. Also, it is worth noting that Raj doesn't have any children from Shhyamali, and the kid he was spotted with was his co-director, Krishna DK's daughter.

A source close to the couple confirmed to Pinkvilla that Raj was divorced when he fell in love with Samantha after they collaborated on the film Citadel. The source also denied that Raj has a daughter with his ex-wife, and revealed that the girl in the online picture is his co-director, Krishna DK's daughter. The source said:

"Raj got officially divorced from Shhyamali in 2022 and found love in Samantha after they collaborated for Citadel. Meanwhile, reports about Raj being spotted with his daughter are false. He does not have a daughter, and the kid he was spotted with is his co-director Krishna Dk's daughter."

Know the age difference between Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Raj Nidimoru

According to a report by Pinkvilla, there is an eight-year age difference between Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Raj Nidimaru. Samantha was born on April 28, 1987, which means she is 38 years old in 2025. On the other hand, Raj was reportedly born on August 4, 1979, and he would turn 46 this year. So, if you do the math, Samantha and Raj share an age gap of eight years. Interestingly, Samantha Ruth Prabhu was earlier married to Naga Chaitanya, who was just one year older than her, as his date of birth was November 23, 1986.

Samantha and Raj got married on December 1, 2025, in a low-key ceremony at Isha Yoga Centre's Ling Bhairavi Temple. Around 30 close relatives and friends have attended the celebration. Samantha and Raj announced their wedding by sharing their celebration pictures.
