The style star with a Samantha Ruth Prabhu link

Samantha Ruth Prabhu is ruling the headlines after tying the knot with filmmaker Raj Nidimoru. The duo announced their marriage following a quiet yogic ceremony at the Isha Foundation in Coimbatore on December 1. Since then, the couple has been in the news not just for the wedding but also because people began speculating about the timeline of their relationship, which brought attention to Raj Nidimoru’s ex-wife, Shhyamali De.

Who is Shhyamali De?

Raj Nidimoru married Shhyamali De in 2015, and the couple filed for divorce in 2022, the same year Samantha finalised her separation from actor Naga Chaitanya. While the timing may look unusual to some, there’s no denying the newly married couple seems genuinely happy. And as for Shhyamali De, there’s no reason to feel bad for her, she has been making waves with her professional achievements and her effortless fashion sense. Deeply rooted in her Bengali culture, she often shares stunning looks on social media. Here are some of her most eye-catching style moments.

She styled it with white straight palazzo pants, kept her accessories minimal, opted for a no-makeup look, and styled her hair simply and straight.
