Speculation around Samantha Ruth Prabhu ’s growing closeness with filmmaker Raj Nidimoru has taken a different turn after a new report claimed that the duo is planning to take their relationship a step further by moving in together and are actively looking for a place. However, Samantha ’s team has now addressed the claims and called them false.
Truth Behind the Report
According to Pinkvilla, a source close to the duo shared, “Samantha and Raj are considering moving in together and are scouting for properties. They have the intent to live together and are working in that direction.”
Now, Samantha’s manager has called these just “rumours” in a conversation with Hindustan Times.

Previous reports claimed that Raj officially divorced Shhyamali in 2022 and found love in Samantha after they collaborated on Citadel: Honey Bunny. Samantha recently fuelled the relationship rumours by posting a series of pictures on Instagram about her production venture Subham. One of the photos featured her standing beside Raj in front of a giant poster of the film, and the next showed her sitting with him on a flight and resting her head on his shoulder.
