What’s the story behind that saree? Riddhi Kumar’s Prabhas praise rekindles relationship rumours

Speculation about a possible relationship between Prabhas and actor Riddhi Kumar has resurfaced following her recent remarks at a film event. The two have been rumoured to be close ever since they worked together in Radhe Shyam, and Riddhi’s latest comments have added fresh fuel to the chatter.

Speaking at the pre-release event of The Raja Saab, Riddhi revealed that the designer saree she wore on the occasion had been gifted to her by Prabhas three years ago. “I saved this saree for three years just to wear it tonight,” she said, drawing attention from fans and media alike.

Observers also noted that Riddhi did not use the formal honorific “garu” while referring to Prabhas — a mark of respect commonly used for senior stars in the Telugu film industry. She further said that she feels grateful to have Prabhas in her life, a remark that has been widely discussed.

Together, these moments have reignited speculation about whether the bond between the two actors is platonic or something more. Industry watchers suggest that Riddhi is likely to be questioned about the nature of their relationship if she gives interviews ahead of the film’s release.

The Raja Saab also features Malavika Mohanan and Nidhhi Agerwal in lead roles, with Sanjay Dutt playing a prominent character alongside Zarina Wahab.
