Telugu actor star Allu Sirish's wedding celebrations is on full swing in Hyderabad. His bride Nayanika Reddy is not from the film industry, so just who is she? Namrata Thakker finds out.
Key Points
- Nayanika Reddy is all set to marry Telugu actor Allu Sirish on March 6.
- Nayanika is a Hyderabad-based businesswoman.
- Allu and Nayanika met in October 2023.
Born and raised in Hyderabad, Nayanika comes from an entrepreneurial family, which explains her academically-driven nature.
Before stepping into the business world, she completed her bachelors in Civil Engineering from Chaitanya Bharathi Institute Of Technology, Hyderabad, and went on pursue her Masters degree in Business Administration from The London School of Economics and Political Science.
Currently, she’s the managing director at Vijmohan Constructions Private Limited and also holds the position of Operations Executive at Prajay Engineers Syndicate LTD.
Despite her professional fame, Nayanika prefers a quiet life away from the media glare. Even her Instagram account remains private, hinting at her low-profile lifestyle.
But all that might change now that she’s getting married to Telugu actor Allu Sirish.
Nayanika and Allu got engaged last October after knowing each other and dating for almost two years.
So how did the lovebirds meet?
Well, Allu Sirish had posted about his meet-cute on Instagram: 'Back in October 2023, when Varun & Lavanya were getting married, Nitin and Shalini Kandukuri threw a party for them. Shalini invited her best friend Nayanika to the celebration. That night was the first time Nayanika and I truly met.
‘And now, two years later, we're happily in love and engaged. Someday, when my kids ask me how it all began, I'll tell them that's "How I Met Your Mother!"
‘A big thank you to all of Nayanika's friends who welcomed me into their circle and made me feel loved from day one.'

Before that, a traditional haldi ceremony took place at Allu Sirish’s family residence in Hyderabad. The couple will wed on March 6.
