Following her separation from Naga Chaitanya in 2021, actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu has remained single but has now been thrown at the centre with rumours of her dating director Raj Nidimoru gaining steam on social media fan forums.
The speculations began when Samantha posted pictures on her Instagram handle from the World Pickleball League match on Saturday. As the owner of the Chennai Super Champs team, she posted about the match but in one particular photo was seen holding Raj Nidimoru's hand.
The photo of her holding Raj's hand caught the attention of her fans and quickly went viral, sparking rumours that they might be dating.
While Samantha is an acclaimed actress with her most recent hit being the ‘Citadel: Honey Bunny’ series opposite Varun Dhawan, Raj Nidimoru, part of the director duo Raj and DK, is known for projects like ‘The Family Man,’ ‘Farzi,’ and ‘Shor In The City’.
Incidentally, Nidimoru was one of the directors of Citadel: Honey Bunny and thus has a collaboration history with Samantha. Further, the duo are currently collaborating on the upcoming series ‘Rakht Brahmand,’ and the actress has credited Raj and DK for pushing her to take on challenging roles.
