Tollywood star Naga Chaitanya is all set to tie the knot for the second time, this time with actress Sobhita Dhulipala. The couple, who had kept their relationship under wraps until their engagement in August, is now gearing up for a grand yet intimate wedding ceremony on December 4 at Annapurna Studios in Hyderabad. In a recent interview with The Times of India, Chaitanya shared his thoughts on his upcoming marriage, his bond with Sobhita, and the special significance of their wedding venue.
Chaitanya Expresses Excitement For His New Journey
Talking about his fiancée, Chaitanya didn’t hold back his admiration and affection for Sobhita. He said, “I am looking forward to starting a new journey with Sobhita and celebrating life together. I connect deeply with her; she understands me beautifully and fills a void in me. It’s going to be an amazing journey ahead.”
His heartfelt words have won over fans, who are thrilled to see the actor embracing a new chapter in his life after his separation from Samantha Ruth Prabhu in 2021.
The Wedding Venue Holds A Sentimental Value
Chaitanya revealed that the couple’s wedding will take place at Annapurna Studios, a venue steeped in emotional significance for the Akkineni family. He said, “The wedding will be held at Annapurna Studios, which has a very special sentiment attached to it. It was a conscious decision by the family to have the wedding there in front of my grandfather’s statue and seek his blessings.”
The actor added, “There is definitely a lot of excitement, butterflies… not much (smiles). Butterflies are only because of the planning and the logistics that are involved on those days, like bringing the guest list together and putting the other details of the wedding together. Our families are excited to come together and celebrate.”
A Love Story Two Years In The Making
Chaitanya and Sobhita have been dating for two years, though they kept their relationship private until their engagement in August. Despite being spotted together on vacations and casual outings, the couple never publicly confirmed their romance until now. Their engagement marked the beginning of a new chapter, and fans have been eagerly awaiting details about their wedding ever since.
The couple’s chemistry and mutual respect for each other have been evident to those close to them. Chaitanya’s comments about Sobhita “filling a void” in his life reflect the deep connection they share.
A Traditional And Intimate Celebration
The wedding ceremony is expected to be a traditional Telugu affair, with only close friends and family members in attendance. Both the Akkineni and Daggubati families will be present, along with Sobhita’s relatives.
The bride-to-be will don traditional Andhra weaves, adding a cultural touch to the celebration. The event will focus on simplicity and togetherness, reflecting the couple’s desire for an intimate yet meaningful ceremony.
Nagarjuna’s Role In Bringing The Couple Together
Interestingly, Naga Chaitanya’s father, superstar Nagarjuna, played a pivotal role in the couple’s love story. In an earlier interview, Nagarjuna revealed that he was instrumental in introducing Chaitanya and Sobhita, and he expressed his happiness at seeing their bond flourish. “Their bond makes me happy,” Nagarjuna had said, giving his blessings to the couple.
Fans Celebrate Chaitanya’s Happiness
Ever since the news of Chaitanya’s second marriage broke, fans have been showering him and Sobhita with love and support. Social media platforms are abuzz with congratulatory messages, memes, and fan edits celebrating the duo’s journey.
Many fans have also appreciated Chaitanya’s candid remarks about his relationship, calling it a refreshing change in an industry often shrouded in secrecy. One fan commented, “It’s so heartwarming to see Naga Chaitanya so open and happy. Wishing him and Sobhita a lifetime of love and joy!”
Moving On From The Past
Chaitanya’s first marriage to actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu ended in separation in 2021, a decision that both parties described as mutual. While fans were initially heartbroken, both Chaitanya and Samantha have since moved on, focusing on their careers and personal growth.
For Chaitanya, finding love again in Sobhita has been a transformative experience. His remarks about Sobhita filling a “void” highlight how meaningful this relationship has been for him.
A Grand Yet Personal Affair
As the big day approaches, all eyes are on the couple as they prepare to embark on this new journey together. The decision to host the wedding at Annapurna Studios not only honors the Akkineni family’s legacy but also serves as a testament to the importance of family and tradition in their lives.
With the perfect blend of love, tradition, and simplicity, Naga Chaitanya and Sobhita Dhulipala’s wedding is set to be a celebration to remember. Fans are eagerly awaiting glimpses of the ceremony and are already looking forward to the couple’s happily ever after.
