Popular Telugu actor Samantha Ruth Prabhu has been soft-launching The Family Man creator Raj Nidimoru on Instagram all year through. What began as mere rumours, Samantha let her pictures with Raj do all the talking, rather than issue an official statement.
However, since morning, rumours have been rife that the duo have tied the knot at the Isha Yoga Centre. As we await an official confirmation, Raj's ex-wife, Shhyamali De, dropped a cryptic post on "desperate people".
