What does her caption mean?
The phrase she used holds significant meaning in the Telugu culture—Godhuma means wheat, Raayi means stone, and Pasupu translates to turmeric. The phrase refers to a traditional wedding ritual where the bride and groom grind these ingredients together, symbolizing the beginning of their shared life and responsibilities.
In the ceremony, Sobhita wore a stunning silk saree in peach gold and green hues. She was surrounded by her close friends and family, who blessed her for the upcoming nuptials. The actress participated in the grinding of turmeric as part of the ritual, taking the blessings of her elders, an important custom in Telugu weddings.
Fans shower Sobhita Dhulipala with love
Sobhita’s fans were quick to react to her post, calling the ceremony “aesthetically beautiful” and praising her radiant look. “How beautiful you are,” one fan commented, while another added, “So so aesthetically beautiful!” The pictures captured a serene and joyful atmosphere, giving fans a glimpse of the couple’s intimate celebrations ahead of their wedding.
Naga Chaitanya, son of Telugu star Nagarjuna, and Sobhita got engaged in August in a private ceremony with their families. Nagarjuna shared the happy news on social media, expressing his excitement to welcome Sobhita into the family. “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,” he wrote.
Chaitanya was previously married to actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu, but the couple split in 2021.
