“Congratulations to the happy couple! Wishing them a lifetime of love and happiness. God bless,” the caption further read. The pictures featured Chaitanya in a silk kurta and Sobhita in a pink saree. In one of the pictures, Nagarjuna joined them too, holding both of them close.

Naga Chaitanya was previously married to fellow Telugu star Samantha Ruth Prabhu. The two tied the knot in 2017 but separated in 2021, the same year that their divorce was finalised. Sobhita and Chaitanya reportedly began dating in 2022 but did not speak about it publicly. The two were often spotted vacationing together but never publicly accepted they were dating. The pictures from the engagement are the first time the two have posed together.
