After months of speculation,

Sobhita

and

Naga Chaitanya

have finally made it official! The couple got enaged in a traditional ceremony today, reported at Naga’s residence.
The first pictures from the special occasion, shared by Nagarjuna, reflect tradition, love and togetherness. Sobhita and Naga Chaitanya opted for customised attires by Manish Malhotra for their special day.

Decoding their attires, the designer shared on social media, “Draped in a medley of textile specially sourced from the weaving communities of Andhra Pradesh, Sobhita was keen that this personal moment reflect her roots as well as pay homage to its rich traditions. She is wearing Uppada silk (from the region Uppada, Andhra Pradesh) in the golden blush colour of the Kanakaambaram, a traditional temple flower commonly worn in the hair by Telugu women as well as the eternal Padmam (lotus) The silhouette, referenced from paintings of iconic Telugu artist ‘Bapu’ – is a derivation of the classic half-saree style worn by young women of South India.”

Revealing the though behind Naga’s attire, Manish shared, “Naga Chaitanya is wearing our interpretation of the classic Pattu pancha, laalchi and kanduva- a traditional 3 piece set worn by the men of Andhra Pradesh. The elegance of ivory brocade and muted gold tussar silk is complimented with accents of dori work in antique gold zari.” Wishing the couple a blissful life, he added, “Congratulations and Lots of love to this Beautiful couple on their Engagement.💞The Nischitaardham (engagement) ceremony of Stunning Sobhita Dhulipala @sobhitad and Gorgeours Naga Chaitanya Akkineni @chayakkineni.”
