Sobhia Dhulipala and Naga Chaitanya exchanged vows in a private ceremony, and the future bride honoured her heritage on this momentous occasion. 

Naga Chaitanya and rumours about his relationship with Sobhia Dhulipala have been circulating since 2022. The couple did not, however, reveal their then-developing romance. While they have both denied ever being together, there have been instances when they have appeared together in photos while on vacation. Sobhia and Naga eventually made the big decision and got engaged after dating for two years. 

Sobhita Dhulipala wore a Manish Malhotra saree, which flaunted her connection with her roots

Sobhita and Naga got engaged on August 8, 2024, in a private ceremony that was witnessed by members of their immediate family. Sobhita, however, made sure to stay true to her heritage for the big day by donning a saree by renowned fashion designer Manish Malhotra. It came from the Andhra Pradesh weaving communities. Sobhita looked lovely in the golden blush hue of an Uppada silk drape, reminiscent of a traditional temple flower. 

A gold necklace, matar mala, and jhumkas completed the bride-to-be’s look. Her look was completed with soft eye makeup, a bindi, and her hair pulled back into a bun. Conversely, Andhra Pradesh men wear a three-piece outfit known as pattu pancha, laalchi, and kanduva. Naga Chaitanya donned these traditions.

Naga Chaitanya’s father, Nagarjun Chaitanya announced his son’s engagement

Let us inform you that the couple’s engagement was announced by Naga Chaitanya’s father, Nagarjun, rather than the couple themselves. He shared pictures of the soon-to-be married couple on this X handle and mentioned that their engagement ceremony had ended at 9:42 in the morning. He conveyed his joy at having Sobhita join his family. He penned:

“We are delighted to announce the engagement of our son, Naga Chaitanya, to Sobhita Dhulipala, which took place this morning at 9:42 a.m.!! We are overjoyed to welcome her into our family. Congratulations to the happy couple! Wishing them a lifetime of love and happiness. God bless!”

Naga Chaitanya first marriage with Samantha Ruth Prabhu

For those unaware, Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Naga Chaitanya fell in love during the filming of Ye Maaya Chesave, which was their first collaboration. In 2017, the couple got married after dating for a few years. They did not have a long marriage, though, and everyone was shocked to learn of their divorce in 2020. Although there was never any discussion about the issues, Samantha freely admitted that she couldn’t tolerate having Naga Chaitanya in the same room as her.
