Actor Samantha Ruth Prabhu and filmmaker-husband Raj Nidimoru tied the knot on 1 December in a spiritual Bhuta Shuddhi Vivaha ceremony at the Isha Yoga Centre’s Linga Bhairavi Temple in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu.
The actress shared aesthetic photos from the ceremony on Instagram, captioning it simply with the date “01.12.2025” with white heart emojis on either side. The ceremony garnered positive responses on social media for its simple yet personal aspect, amid a host of grand celebrity and business family weddings over the past years.
According to reports, the couple is a force to reckon with in the Tamil and Telugu movie industries. The combined net worth is estimated to be between ₹195 crore and ₹200 crore in 2025.
A sought-after director, Raj Nidimoru's net worth is estimated to be around ₹85-89 crore as of 2025, according to a report by Daily Jagran. Notably, he is half of the celebrated professional duo Raj & DK, who have well-paid content production, directing and writing credits from projects including Farzi and The Family Man.
Besides the fees, Nidimoru also draws sums from international collabs, profit-sharing agreements, and back-end deals, as per a Moneycontrol report.
Notably, the couple collaborated on Amazon Prime Video's ‘The Family Man Season 2’ and ‘Citadel: Honey Bunny’, both as actors and directors.
The MC report pegged Samantha Ruth Prabhu’s net worth at around ₹100-110 crore in 2025, while a Stockgro report estimates it at ₹101 crore, largely drawn from her film career in the southern movie industries. Her most recent big cheques and bonuses have been from OTT projects, such as Citadel: Honey Bunny.
She is also a banner name for endorsements, commanding a premium of tens of crores, as per the MC report, for advertisements spanning beauty, fashion, food, and lifestyle.
The intimate ceremony was attended by only close family and friends — around 30 guests — and began at around 6 AM in the early morning. Fans, friends and peers from across the film industry have sent their blessings, celebrating the union for its sincerity and depth rather than glamour.
Both are divorced. Prabhu was previously married to actor Naga Chaitanya (2017-2021), while Nidimoru married Shhyamali De in 2015 (Sources say their relationship ended several years ago but was not made public, and there has been no official statement from either party).
