Actor and model Samyuktha Shanmuganathan has married former Chennai Super Kings cricketer Anirudha Srikkanth in Chennai, putting an end to weeks of speculation surrounding their relationship.
The wedding, held on Thursday, was a simple and traditional ceremony conducted as per Hindu customs, with only close friends and family in attendance.
A Traditional Wedding in Chennai
Samyuktha looked elegant in a gold saree paired with classic temple jewellery, while Anirudha opted for a gold-toned shirt and dhoti. The first photos from the ceremony quickly surfaced online, gaining widespread attention across social media platforms. Fans and well-wishers have been sharing congratulatory messages, celebrating the couple’s union.
Relationship Confirmed During Diwali
Rumours about their relationship began circulating months ago but were confirmed when the couple posted a photo together during Diwali. The post ended speculation but also intensified curiosity about a possible engagement and wedding.
Before the official announcement, Samyuktha addressed the rumours cryptically, saying,
“Everything is on the internet. Whatever is there, is there.”
A New Beginning for Both
This marks the second marriage for both individuals.
- Anirudha Srikkanth, son of former Indian cricketer Krishnamachari Srikkanth, was previously married to model Aarti Venkatesh from 2012 to 2014.
- Samyuktha was earlier married to tech entrepreneur Karthik Shankar. Their divorce was finalised in early 2025. In an interview, she revealed that the marriage ended after discovering her husband’s affair, saying it made her feel, “like my entire life was a lie.”
Wishes Pour In
As soon as the wedding pictures went public, fans, colleagues, and industry friends flooded social media with congratulatory messages, celebrating the couple’s new journey.
