Actors Sobhita Dhulipala and Naga Chaitanya, who began their pre-wedding celebrations in October, are all set to tie the knot in December. The couple will marry on December 4, 2024, at Annapurna Studios in Hyderabad.
This Is When Sobhita Dhulipala & Naga Chaitanya Are Getting Married
As excitement builds for their upcoming nuptials, several images of their wedding invitation have surfaced on social media. The card features traditional South Indian elements, including a temple, lamps, a cow, and bells, adding a cultural touch to the celebration. Alongside their names, the card also includes family details, giving a glimpse into the nature of the occasion.
On Monday, October 21, Sobhita shared pictures from a pre-wedding ceremony. The ceremony took place in Visakhapatnam, but Naga Chaitanya wasn’t featured in the shared images. For the pre-wedding ritual, Sobhita wore a gorgeous peach-gold and green silk saree. Surrounded by her friends and family, she followed the customs, taking blessings from her elders and touching their feet. As part of the tradition, Sobhita ground the turmeric, symbolising her preparation for the next stage in life.
Sobhita Dhulipala and Naga Chaitanya's Pre-Wedding Celebrations Begin
The actor captioned her post, “Godhuma Raayi Pasupu danchatam 🦜🪷♥️ And so it begins!” The post caught the attention of many, with the caption referring to a significant ritual in Telugu weddings.
The phrase Sobhita used in her caption has deep meaning in the context of Telugu marriage traditions. In Telugu, “Godhuma” means wheat, “Raayi” means stone, and “Pasupu” refers to turmeric. “Danchatam” means crushing or grinding. The ritual involves the bride and groom grinding wheat, turmeric, and sometimes other ingredients together on a stone.
This act symbolises unity, cooperation, and the couple's shared responsibilities as they begin a new phase in their life together. It's a way of emphasising the teamwork needed in marriage and is one of the many rituals that mark the bond between bride and groom in a Telugu wedding.
The Couple's Journey to Marriage
Sobhita Dhulipala and Naga Chaitanya have been together for over a year and a half. The couple got engaged on August 8, marking the next step in their relationship. While they have kept their relationship relatively private, their engagement was a joyful occasion for their families and fans.
