Samantha was previously married to actor Naga Chaitanya; the couple separated in 2021 after four years of marriage.
Samantha and Raj Nidimoru share a significant professional history. They have collaborated on the critically acclaimed series "The Family Man 2" and the upcoming Indian version of "Citadel: Honey Bunny." Their association extends beyond film, as they also partnered on the pickleball team, Chennai Super Champs. Their working relationship is set to continue, with the duo reportedly reuniting for a project titled "Rakht Brahmand" with DK.
In several interviews, Samantha has been vocal about the support she received from Raj and DK, especially concerning "Citadel: Honey Bunny." She revealed that they were instrumental in her taking on the project, even when she had initially considered passing due to health concerns. Their recent joint visit to the Tirumala Tirupati temple in Andhra Pradesh also garnered attention.
