Telugu
actor
Naga
Chaitanya
and
Bollywood
actress
Sobhita
Dhulipala
were
engaged
on
August
8,
in
Hyderabad.
His
father,
Telugu
superstar
Nagarjuna,
announced
the
good
news
on
social
media
which
took
many
by
surprise.
However,
the
engagement
announcement
wasn’t
a
suprise
as
Chay
and
Sobhita
have
been
dating
for
two
years.
Namrata
Thakker
tells
just
how
they
fell
in
love.
Chay
and
Sobhita’s
dating
rumours
first
started
in
May
2022
when
she
was
spotted
at
his
Hyderabad
home.
Though
Sobhita
was
in
Hyderabad
to
promote
her
film
Major
with
co-star
Sesh
Adivi,
she
was
not
only
seen
taking
a
tour
of
Chay’s
home.
Sobhita
celebrated
her
birthday
with
him
and
a
few
friends
before
heading
back
to
Bombay.
That’s
when
the
speculation
about
the
two
being
in
a
relationship
began.
In
March
2023,
the
lovebirds
took
off
to
London
for
a
vacay
and
this
pretty
much
confirmed
their
relationship,
as
a
picture
from
their
holiday
went
viral
on
social
media.
The
photo
in
question
had
Sobhita
in
the
background
while
the
Premam
actor
posed
with
Michelin
Star
Chef
Surendra
Mohan
at
his
London
restaurant.
We
hear
Sobhita
and
Chay
initially
bonded
over
their
love
for
fast
cars,
Formula
1
and
books.
Soon,
their
friendship
turned
into
a
romance.
In
fact,
in
September
2023,
Sobhita
posted
this
picture
of
her
reading
Mathew
McConaughey’s
book,
Greenlights.
Chay
posted
about
the
same
book
on
his
Instagram
after
he
returned
from
his
social
media
detox
post
announcing
his
divorce.
Coincidence
much?
In
April,
Sobhita
and
Chay
went
on
a
safari
holiday
together
and
though
both
of
them
posted
solo
pictures
on
Instagram,
fans
were
quick
to
join
the
dots.
Two
months
later,
they
were
spotted
once
again
but
this
time
in
Europe,
at
a
wine
tasting
tour.
Now,
that
the
couple
is
engaged,
they
can
go
on
holidays
without
working
hard
to
keep
it
a
secret!
