Actors Sobhita Dhulipala and Naga Chaitanya are now engaged. On Thursday, Chaitanya's dad, actor Nagarjuna took to X to make the announcement, sharing glimpses of the couple from the private engagement ceremony, which took place at their residence in Hyderabad.

Alongside the photos, Nagarjuna wrote: "We are delighted to announce the engagement of our son, Naga Chaitanya, to Sobhita Dhulipala, which took place this morning at 9:42 a.m.!! We are overjoyed to welcome her into our family. Congratulations to the happy couple! Wishing them a lifetime of love and happiness. God bless!" 8.8.8 A beginning of infinite love Sobhitad chayakkineni @chay_akkineni (sic)."

The photos featured the newly engaged couple dressed in traditional attires. While Chaitanya was seen in an off-white kurta-pyjama, Dhulipala looked elegant in a soft pink saree.

Speculation about Dhulipala and Chaitanya's relationship began circulating soon after Chaitanya’s separation from actor Samantha Ruth Prabhu in 2021. It gained traction in 2023, following viral photos of the duo dining at a London restaurant. Their European holiday in June further intensified the speculation. Despite the rumours, the couple never publicly confirmed their relationship. However, fans noted similarities in their social media posts, suggesting the two were dating.
