Exclusive: Naga Chaitanya and Sobhita Dhulipala to get engaged today

Reports have been circulating about Telugu actor Naga Chaitanya, affectionately known as Chay, and actor Sobhita Dhulipala dating over the past few years, with recent reports suggesting they are set to get engaged. It has been exclusively confirmed that these reports are true, and the engagement is scheduled for August 8.

According to sources close to Chay, the engagement will take place on Thursday around noon. It will be a private and intimate ceremony held at Nagarjuna’s home in the evening. Nagarjuna is expected to be the first to share the news on social media. Attendees will include Amala Akkineni and Akhil, Chay’s brother, along with Sobhita’s parents. The ceremony will take place at Nagarjuna's luxurious residence in Jubilee Hills, Hyderabad, a notable landmark similar to Shah Rukh Khan's home in Bandra. Fans often visit the Jubilee Hills home, which spans over 4000 square feet, hoping to see the star.

A source from Geetha Arts confirmed that the shooting for the movie "Thandel," in which Chay stars alongside Sai Pallavi, has been canceled for August 8. The shooting is currently taking place in Hyderabad, and Chay is expected to resume filming on Friday.

Naga Chaitanya was previously married to actor Samantha Ruth Prabhu, with whom he separated in October 2021. Chay (37) and Sobhita (32) have been dating for several years, and it appears Chay’s family approves of his relationship. At a movie event, Nagarjuna spoke highly of Sobhita, saying, “She was so good in the film. I mean, I should not say it like this, but she was hot in the film. There is something so attractive about her.” This video has gone viral on social media amid the engagement news.

Chay and Sobhita are expected to tie the knot later in 2024. Photos from the engagement ceremony will reportedly be released on social media this evening.

Chay and Sobhita began dating in 2022. Their relationship was first revealed through a Reddit thread featuring photos of the couple at Chef Surender Mohan’s renowned London restaurant. Despite their efforts to keep the relationship private, separate images of themselves at the same locations posted on social media fueled the rumors. The couple shares a love for Formula 1, which helped them bond and develop their relationship. Additionally, photos of the couple at a wine tasting event in Europe surfaced on social media, confirming their relationship. Although both Chay and Sobhita have been questioned about their dating rumors, they have chosen not to comment, responding only with smiles.

Meanwhile, Samantha has been busy promoting her series "Citadel" with Varun Dhawan. Samantha and Chay married on October 6 and 7, 2017, in Goa. Their marriage lasted four years before they announced their separation in October 2021.
