Sobhita Dhulipala and Naga Chaitanya got engaged on August 8, 2024 in an intimate ceremony, surrounded by their families and friends.
Naga Chaitanya made no secret about his desire to wed Sobhita. The hunk even went as far as saying that he 'can't wait' to marry his fiancee and participate in the various rituals.
Sobhita and Naga Chaitanya announced their engagement with a poetic verse that read, "What could my mother be to yours? What kin is my father to yours anyway? And how did you and I meet ever? But in love our hearts are as red earth and pouring rain: mingled beyond parting.'
According to Chay, the hunk first interacted with the actress while attending an event for an OTT platform, where they both represented their web series.
Sobhita and Chay made sure to stick to tradition as they began prep for their wedding ceremony.
Sobhita began her pre-wedding festivities on October 21 with an intimate Godhuma Raayi Pasupu danchatam ceremony.
The Raata ceremony, a significant pre-wedding ritual in many Telugu traditions, marks an important step before the bride is officially married.
During this event, a bamboo stick is planted along with leaves of mango, jamun, and Jammi trees, which are then worshipped with sacred materials. A sacred potli (bag) is tied to the pole, and prayers are offered. This ritual is believed to purify and bless the bride before her journey into married life.
This is a Telugu version of the Haldi ceremony. During Mangalasnaanam, turmeric paste is applied to the bride’s body as a part of the auspicious cleansing process before the wedding.
Naga Chaitanya and Sobhita will take the plunge and wed in a grand ceremony on December 4 in Hyderabad.
