Naga Chaitanya and Shobita Dhulipala's wedding has been the talk of the town for a couple of months. The wedding is reportedly scheduled on December 4th, 2025. Just two days before tying the knot, Sobhita shared beautiful pictures from her
Pelli Kuthuru ceremony
, a traditional pre-wedding event that celebrates the bride.
In the photos, Sobhita looks stunning in a royal red saree adorned with intricate jewellery, including a beautiful necklace and a decorative piece on her forehead, taking in the essence of a traditional bride. She is seen surrounded by her family members, who are also dressed in vibrant traditional attire, and she is seen receiving blessings from her elders. In another picture, she is seen taking blessings in an aarti ceremony.
The whole atmosphere of the occasion is filled with smiles and joy, filled with happiness at this significant moment in her life.
The Pelli Kuthuru ceremony is a significant event in Telugu culture, often filled with rituals that honor the bride and prepare her for marriage. In this ritual the soon-to-be bride is bathed with a special paste that is made of haldi, rose water, and other essential ingredients. This paste is believed to ward off the evil eye and bring good luck to the bride.
Earlier, images from the couple's
haldi ceremony
were making rounds on social media, further heightening anticipation for the wedding. The haldi ceremony is another important pre-wedding ritual where turmeric paste is applied to the bride and groom to bless them with beauty and prosperity.
The wedding will include rich Telugu culture, with the couple having already hosted three significant pre-wedding ceremonies. The festivities began with the Raata ceremony, Mangalasnaanam, and Godhuma Raayi Pasupu.
Sobhita Dhulipala and Naga Chaitanya's relationship has blossomed over the past two years. Their engagement was announced earlier this year by Chay's father, Nagarjuna, in August. Naga Chaitanya was previously married to actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu, but after their split in 2021, he found love again with Sobhita.
