Speculation continues over whether the wedding will be a morning or evening affair. Since the engagement, there has been much chatter about potential wedding locations, with some suggesting Rajasthan or even international venues.

Similar to their intimate engagement in Hyderabad and the traditional godhuma raayi pasupu danchadam (turmeric crushing) ceremony held in Sobhita’s hometown of Visakhapatnam. Sobhita dazzled in a stunning Kanjivaram saree, complemented by exquisite gold jewellery and fragrant jasmine flowers woven into her hair. The wedding will reflect traditional Telugu customs. Notable rituals such as the jeelakarra bellam, where the couple applies a cumin-jaggery paste on each other’s heads, will be part of the festivities.
Chaitanya and Sobhita are expected to maintain a low-key celebration, in line with their previous events. While Sobhita’s family and members from the Akkineni and Daggubati clans will be in attendance, the couple intends to keep the guest list minimal, inviting only their nearest and dearest.
The couple has always been private about their relationship, managing to keep their romance under wraps for a long time before finally going public. They started dating in 2022 and made their relationship Instagram-official after their engagement in 2024. As their wedding date draws nearer, the couple is excitedly sharing snippets of their journey together, creating a buzz for what is expected to be an unforgettable celebration in Hyderabad.
