On Wednesday, Tamil and Telugu film actor Nivetha Pethuraj officially introduced her partner, Rajhith Ibran, through a heartfelt post on social media. Both Nivetha and Rajhith shared a picture together on Instagram, captioned, “to my now and forever”, accompanied by heart emojis, making their relationship public.

Nivetha, who made her acting debut in 2016 with the critically acclaimed Oru Naal Koothu, quickly established herself with significant roles in films such as Tik Tik Tik alongside Jayam Ravi, Thimiru Pudichavan with Vijay Antony, and Vijay Sethupathi’s Sangathamizhan. She went on to gain popularity in Telugu cinema with performances in films like Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo opposite Allu Arjun. Her most recent screen appearance was in the JioCinema horror thriller Boo.

Beyond her film career, Nivetha is also known for her diverse interests. She has competed at the state level in badminton, received training in Formula One racing, and often shares her passion for sports on social media. In recent years, the actor has been based in Dubai, where she has maintained a relatively low profile in terms of new film projects.

Meanwhile, Rajhith Ibran is reported to come from the modelling industry and is currently a businessman in the hospitality sector, also based in Dubai. According to reports from industry insiders, the couple is expected to marry later this year in a private ceremony with only close friends and family present.

While the timeline of their relationship has not been publicly disclosed, the announcement has been met with widespread support from fans and colleagues, with the couple’s picture attracting thousands of likes and congratulatory messages.

Over the years, Nivetha has occasionally been the subject of controversies, including allegations about her personal life and financial backing by a leading actor and politician. However, with her relationship with Rajhith Ibran now made public, attention has shifted to the actor’s new chapter, one celebrated warmly by her well-wishers.
