The couple got engaged in an intimate ceremony in the presence of family members and close friends at the actor’s Hyderabad home.
Chaitanya, who starred in Aamir Khan’s ‘Laal Singh Chaddha’ two years ago and ‘Custody’ in 2023, has been in a relationship with Sobhita for about two years, but they hadn’t publicly acknowledged their relationship. Chaitanya split with Samantha in October 2021 after being married for nearly five years.
Sobhita starred in Mani Ratnam-directed ‘Ponniyin Selvan’ 1 and 2, made her presence felt in the web series ‘Made In Heaven’ and ‘Night Manager’
The couple is expected to get married later this year.
