Love is in the air, and it’s sweeter than ever! The hottest couple, Naga Chaitanya and Sobhita Dhulipala, recently got engaged on August 8. Now, looks like their wedding festivities have already kicked off with a bang. The buzzworthy duo began their pre-wedding celebrations with the traditional Pasupu Danchadam ceremony. It’s a charming Telugu ritual that marks the official start of the wedding shenanigans. Think of it as a Haldi ceremony’s super traditional cousin, where turmeric is pounded, homes are decked out, and the celebrations are truly set in motion!
Sobhita Dhulipala & Naga Chaitanya’s wedding festivities begin
Sobhita recently dropped some gorgeous snapshots from the Pasupu Danchadam on her Instagram, and honestly, it’s a whole vibe. Rocking a breathtaking South Indian saree, complete with gajra adorning her hair, the Made in Heaven star had us swooning with those cultural feels. One pic even showed her getting her hands into the thick of things. She is literally pounding turmeric for the upcoming pellikuthuru and pellikoduku (yep, that’s Telugu for Haldi ceremonies). Captioning the post, she wrote, “Godhuma Raayi Pasupu Danchadam. And so it begins!” The excitement is definitely in the air.
What’s It All About?
For those of you who aren’t clued in, the Pasupu Danchadam is like the ultimate kickstarter for Telugu weddings. It’s a ceremony where families gather, the house gets all decked out, and guests join in the celebrations. The ritual symbolizes the first official steps towards the big day, with turmeric playing a starring role in all the traditional goodness.
Nagarjuna Spills the Tea on the Engagement!
And if you thought the lovebirds were the only ones over the moon, think again! Proud papa Nagarjuna recently gushed about his son’s engagement in an interview, saying, “Chay and Sobhita make a wonderful couple, and their love for each other is undeniable.” He also let slip why the date was extra special. He shared that August 8 was chosen because it’s an extremely auspicious day according to their family astrologer.
Rumor has it that August 8 also holds sentimental value for Chaitanya’s ex-wife, Samantha. But hey, we’re all about new beginnings, right? Let the celebrations continue, and here’s to more adorable couple moments from these lovebirds!
