Naga Chaityana and Sobhita Dhulipala surprised all their fans with their engagement. The news was shared by Nagarjuna. The couple has been together for a long time but never confirmed their relationship. However, with the engagement announcement, it was confirmed. After the couple received good wishes from all quarters, Nagarjuna recently spoke about the wedding and how he knew Shobhita before his son.

In an exclusive interview with TimesNow, Nagarjuna responded to the wedding date and said, “Not immediately, Subhash. As I told you, we decided to have a rushed engagement because it was an auspicious day and since Chay and Sobhita are very sure that they want to get married, we said let’s do it.” He further revealed that he already knew Shobhita. “Very much so. In fact, you will be surprised to know that I knew her long before Chay. Yes! Chay met Sobhita two years ago. But I have known her for six years. I saw her in Adivi Sesh’s film Goodachari and liked her work. I told her that. From then on, we had a lot of discussions about cinema, life and philosophy. Sobhita is a very well-informed girl,” he was quoted as saying.

On Thursday, Nagarjuna took to Instagram to post photos from the engagement ceremony. He can be seen holding his son and daughter-in-law tightly in his arms. Shobhita looks beautiful in a peach-colored sari, while Naga opted for a traditional look. “We are delighted to announce the engagement of our son Naga Chaitanya to Sobhita Dhulipala, which took place this morning at 9:42 am!!

We are so excited to welcome them into our family. Congratulations to the happy couple! We wish them a life full of love and happiness. God bless them!” 8.8.8 “A beginning of never-ending love,” read the caption.

Naga Chaitanya was previously married to Samantha Ruth Prabhu. They dated for a few years before getting married in 2017. However, in October 2021, after four years of marriage, the two announced their separation. At the time, they had issued a statement asking fans and followers for privacy while they “move on”.

In February this year, Samantha recalled her breakup with Naga Chaitanya. Although the actress did not name her ex-husband, she said the year leading up to the myositis was “extremely difficult”.
