Actor Samantha Ruth Prabhu has once again caught fans’ attention, not just for her upcoming film Subham, but for her latest Instagram post that has reignited speculation about her rumored relationship with filmmaker Raj Nidimoru.
Though neither Samantha nor Raj has confirmed or denied the dating buzz, their frequent appearances together have already stirred curiosity—and now fans believe they’ve spotted “confirmation.”
The buzz started with Samantha sharing a set of candid pictures on her Instagram, where she wrote, “It’s been a long road, but here we are. New beginnings @tralalamovingpictures. #Subham releases on May 9th.”
The post celebrated her maiden production venture under her newly launched banner, Tralala Moving Pictures. The album included snaps with her pets, Hash and Saasha, behind-the-scenes glimpses from Subham, and most notably—two photos featuring Raj Nidimoru.
One image captured Samantha and Raj smiling broadly as they took a selfie, while another showed her pet Saasha resting her head affectionately on Raj’s shoulder as he laughed. Fans were quick to jump into the comment section, drawing conclusions.
One user wrote, “So it’s confirmed…… iykyk.” Another chimed in, “I also thinking same.” An observant follower even pointed out Raj’s reflection in an elevator mirror where Samantha held a bouquet, commenting, “There is Raj in the elevator pic!!! omgggg.”
While fans were thrilled about Subham, their attention remained largely on Samantha’s chemistry with Raj. Comments poured in highlighting how “happy” she looked in the photos.

Samantha and Raj Nidimoru have a longstanding professional relationship. They collaborated on the web series The Family Man and Citadel: Honey Bunny. Their next project together is the upcoming Rakt Brahmand: The Bloody Kingdom. Beyond work, they have even partnered on the pickleball team Chennai Super Champs.
Raj is married to Shhyamali De, with whom he shares a daughter. Samantha was previously married to actor Naga Chaitanya, but the couple announced their separation in 2021.
While dating rumours continue to swirl, Samantha remains focused on her production journey. With Subham, she hopes to bring about a shift in the film industry. Speaking to the media, she emphasized her commitment to equality and fairness. “Under Tralala Productions, I want to be very careful about every aspect. I believe in equal skill, equal remuneration, and equal experience. As much as possible, I want to make sure that there is equal skill, equal pay, and equal experience,” she stated.
Whether or not Samantha and Raj are romantically involved, fans are clearly invested in the duo’s growing camaraderie and creative ventures. For now, all eyes are on Subham, which marks a major new chapter in Samantha’s evolving career—as a producer and possibly, as a partner.
