New twist in Samantha Ruth Prabhu-Raj Nidimoru's romance buzz? Ex-wife gives cryptic hint about 'lost trust'
Rumours of a budding romance between actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu and director Raj Nidimoru have taken over social media in recent weeks. The conversation was reignited after Samantha posted a set of photos from a recent trip, one of which showed her resting her head on Raj's shoulder during a flight. Another image featured both of them with the crew of their upcoming project, standing in front of the 'Subham' film banner. While neither Samantha nor Raj has made any public statement confirming the relationship, fans have been quick to draw conclusions based on their public appearances and online activity. Their growing closeness is also being linked to their past and current professional collaborations, including 'The Family Man 2,' 'Citadel: Honey Bunny,' and Netflix's upcoming series Rakt Brahmand: The Bloody Kingdom. Shhyamali De's Cryptic Posts Stir Online Buzz As the dating rumours gain traction, Raj Nidimoru's ex-wife, Shhyamali De, has become a subject of interest due to a series of cryptic messages she has shared on Instagram. Her most recent post described trust as 'the most expensive currency,' adding that once lost, even a fortune couldn't restore it. While she did not mention anyone by name, the timing of her posts has led many to speculate a connection to the ongoing rumours. This is not the first time Shhyamali has shared such messages. Earlier in June, she posted statements like 'Time exposes, Karma corrects, The Universe Humbles,' and another that encouraged people to 'create good karma' and 'treat people fairly.' Though these messages were general in nature, their proximity to the public conversation around Samantha and Raj has sparked widespread interpretation among fans. A Look at Raj and Shhyamali's Past Raj Nidimoru and Shhyamali De were reportedly married in 2015 and separated in 2022. Shhyamali, a psychology graduate, has held roles in the film industry as an assistant director and script consultant. She has worked with filmmakers such as Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra and Vishal Bhardwaj and contributed to acclaimed films like Rang De Basanti, Omkara, and Ek Nodir Golpo. Although there has been no official confirmation about their separation or current status, Shhyamali's last public posts featuring Raj were made in early 2023, including a Valentine's Day mention and a birthday wish. Since then, her social media has primarily featured reflective and motivational quotes. Despite the intense speculation and viral photos, both Samantha and Raj have remained silent on the matter. The lack of clarification has only intensified curiosity, with many interpreting Samantha's latest images as subtle hints about her relationship status.
