Samantha Ruth Prabhu sparks buzz! Did she just confirm her romance with Raj Nidimoru?

But a recent picture dropped by Samantha within a set of snaps she uploaded on Instagram sparked the debate on whether the actress has given enough hints about her relationship status.

In one of the pictures, Samantha is seen in the arms of Raj, who directed the actress in The Family Man.

The pictures, where Samantha was seen wearing a lace bralette and high-waist pants, were from the launch of Samantha's new perfume brand.

She captioned the post, "Surrounded by friends and family. Over the last year and a half, I’ve taken some of the boldest steps in my career. Taking risks, trusting my intuition, and learning as I go. Today, I’m celebrating the small wins.

"I’m so grateful to be working with some of the brightest, hardest-working, and most authentic people I’ve met. With a lot of faith, I know this is just the beginning."

Raj Nidimoru was the co-director of Raj and DK's spy-action thriller series, Citadel: Honey Bunny that also featured Samantha in the lead.

The actress is reportedly currently filming with Raj in Rakt Brahmand: The Bloody Kingdom that will feature Aditya Roy Kapur in the co-lead.
