Samantha Ruth Prabhu tied the knot with Raj Nidimoru in an intimate ceremony on Monday. They got married in a sacred Bhuta Shuddhi Vivaha ceremony at the abode of Linga Bhairavi Devi within Isha Yoga Center, Coimbatore. It was an intimate ceremony just in the presence of thier close friends and family. Raj and Samantha worked together on ‘The Family Man 2’. The actress dropped first pictures after her wedding and made a stunning bride in a red banarasi saree. She opted for a minimalistic mehendi design and now her bridal mehendi artist has exclusively shared details about it to ETIMES. The mehendi was done by Arulmozhi Ilavarasu who is based in Chennai. Sharing details of the design, she told us, “Samantha was very mindful about getting a minimal henna design, which is a trendsetter, and for a special touch we hid the groom’s name, Raj, in her henna. Opting for minimal designs makes them more visible and vibrant, and it adds more vibe to the overall wedding than doing full-hand henna. So, she was very specific about getting minimal designs and with traditional touch like the cap fillings.” Samantha’s mehendi took around an hour, since it was a very simple, minimalistic design. When asked where was the groom’s name hidden, the mehendi artist said, “Raj’s name was hidden in her right middle finger. It’s a part of the henna culture to hide the groom’s name.”

Talking about Samantha as a bride, Arulmozhi said, “She was smiling all through. She was a happy, chirpy bride.” The mehendi artist further revealed that Raj was by Samantha’s side during the mehendi. She further revealed what was most touching to her about Samantha. The mehendi artist said, “She was a very simple person and we could all resonate with her. Even after being an icon, she wanted a very simple wedding with her closest ones, and seeing her happy made our day.”
