Actors Naga Chaitanya and Sobhita Dhulipala are set to tie the knot soon, and they have officially kickstarted their wedding festivities. The couple got engaged on August 8 in Hyderabad after dating for over two years, and they are now ready to take the plunge.

On Monday, Sobhita took her fans by surprise as she shared photos from her traditional Pasupu Danchadam ceremony. The ritual marks the onset of wedding festivities, and during it, married women in the family come together and grind turmeric in a mortar as it is considered auspicious.

Sobhita looked gorgeous as a Telugu bride in a traditional orange saree with green and golden border. She completed her look with minimalistic gold jewellery and green bangles. She was seen participating in the ritual and sharing a hearty laugh with the female members of her family.

She also sought blessings from the Lord and the elders by touching their feet. "Godhuma Raayi Pasupu danchatam...And so it begins!" Sobhita wrote along with the photos.
