Filmmaker Raj Nidimoru and actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu have been the subject of dating rumors for some time. After she posted images of the two of them together on Instagram, fans began to speculate that this was her attempt to announce their relationship formally.
Samantha posted several images from her trip to Detroit, Michigan, where she attended the Telugu Association of North America (TANA) 2025 edition, on Instagram on Tuesday. The true highlight, though, was when her purported boyfriend, Raj Nidimoru, made several appearances, which led to more conjecture regarding their connection.
One picture shows Raj Nidimoru, one half of the Raj & DK team, lovingly holding Samantha’s arm as they move in unison while grinning broadly. Raj keeps things casual in a navy blazer, trousers, and bright shoes, while Samantha looks chic in an oversized brown sweater paired with loose denim.
The second image shows Samantha and Raj Nidimoru dining with friends at a restaurant, seated next to each other. Samantha might be seen sitting alone in a charming cafe in one picture and wearing a golden outfit designed by Kresha Bajaj in another. In the last picture, Samantha is seen relaxing in her pajamas while cuddling up in bed with her cute dog.

Comments like “So, babyyyy, is it official?”, “Finally found your love… so happy for you”, and “Soft launching your relationship with Raj?” flooded the post, with many calling it a “subtle but official” reveal.
