While they were there, the couple also distributed sweets to the crowd gathered outside the temple.

Talking about the couple's Hyderabad reception, it was attended by some prominent names, such as Megastar Chiranjeevi, Nagarjuna Akkineni, Ram Charan, Allu Arjun, Ravi Teja, Mahesh Babu’s wife Namrata Shirodkar, and Radhika Sarathkumar, attended the grand function, along with some other celebs from the guestlist.
