Sheetal Nidimoru’s moving welcome for Samantha
In her post, Sheetal shared how spiritually aligned and meaningful the day felt as she embraced Samantha into the
Nidimoru family. Her message read, "While praying to Shiva in the Chandrakund today... soaked, shivering, during the
pradoṣha time, I found myself embracing the Shivalingam with a heart full of tears. Not tears of pain... but tears of
gratitude. Gratitude for the peace I feel in this moment, for the clarity that has settled around our family, and for
the deep sense of ‘gentle alignment’ in Raj and Samantha’s journey." Expressing her pride in the couple, she added, "As
a family we feel so proud of how they are walking forward... with calm dignity, honesty, and a steadiness that only
comes when two hearts choose the same path with intention. And as a family, we stand by them together, fully, joyfully,
and without hesitation, blessing them and supporting them in every way." Doing these Isha rituals together as a family
on such a sacred day felt like life aligning itself in the most beautiful way. It reminded me that some relationships
don’t just happen... they arrive with peace. As I light the sesame oil lamps my heart prayed for only one thing, May
everyone find a love that feels this peaceful, this steady, and this right." (Heart emoji) Samantha responded with a

The couple tied the knot on December 1 at the Linga Bhairavi Temple inside the Isha Foundation in Coimbatore. Their

spiritual process aligned with Sadhguru’s philosophy, which both Samantha and Raj have long connected with. Samantha
looked radiant in a traditional red silk saree with golden work, complete with heavy gold jewellery, gajra, and mehendi.
Raj opted for a white kurta–pajama paired with a cream Nehru jacket. Sharing glimpses from the ceremony on Instagram,
Samantha captioned them, " 01.12.2025 ".
