Samantha Ruth Prabhu Removes ‘Ye Maaya Chesave’ Tattoo Years After Divorce From Naga Chaitanya?
Samantha’s recent Instagram video has stirred rumours as fans notice her YMC tattoo, dedicated to Naga Chaitanya, appears missing.
Samantha Ruth Prabhu has once again set social media abuzz, not just with her powerful presence, but with a subtle change that fans were quick to catch. In a recent Instagram video, the actress is seen confidently writing “Nothing to Hide” on a glass wall while wearing a striking burgundy dress with a plunging back. But what truly grabbed attention wasn’t her outfit or message , it was the noticeable absence of a familiar tattoo.
Samantha's famous tattoo is now missing
For years, Samantha carried three tattoos connected to her relationship with actor Naga Chaitanya. Among them, the most iconic was the “YMC” tattoo on her upper back, a tribute to their 2010 film Ye Maaya Chesave, where their love story began. The couple tied the knot in 2017 after years of dating, celebrating their union with dual ceremonies blending Hindu and Christian traditions. However, their journey as husband and wife ended in 2021, when they publicly announced their separation.

Now, nearly four years after their split, fans were quick to point out the missing ink. “Samantha got her YMC tattoo removed,” wrote one social media user. Another speculated, “It’s covered by foundation for the ad.” A third viewer added, “For a moment I thought it was about something else.”
Rumours of a New Chapter
As Samantha continues to maintain a dignified silence on her personal life, there’s growing curiosity about her alleged closeness to filmmaker Raj Nidimoru, of Raj & DK fame. Reports recently suggested that the two are exploring the possibility of living together. A Pinkvilla source claimed, “They are scouting for properties… Raj officially divorced Shhyamali in 2022 and found love in Samantha during Citadel.”
The source also dismissed incorrect assumptions about Raj’s family, clarifying, “He does not have a daughter. The child he was seen with was actually his creative partner Krishna D.K.’s daughter.”
Samantha & Raj's alleged relationship
Despite the buzz, Samantha’s team has dismissed the rumours about her moving in with Raj Nidimoru. A representative told Hindustan Times that these reports are “false.” Neither Samantha nor Raj has made an official statement on the matter.
For now, it remains unclear whether Samantha’s tattoo was removed permanently or just covered for the shoot. But the internet remains intrigued, watching closely for clues about what the actress chooses to hold on to, and what she’s letting go.
