There have been rumours linking between popular South Indian actress Nayantara and choreographer-actor-director Prabhu Deva in the past, which the actress denied on several occasions! Going by the latest developments, it appears that these rumours were not unfounded true and the latest buzz in Chennai is that the couple may tie the knot in December.

“Nayan has given up her career as her priority is to marry Prabhu Deva. They are made for each other and are just waiting to legalise their relationship the moment Prabhu‘s divorce from his wife comes through,” a source close to Nayantara was quoted as saying.

Reportedly Prabhu’s family has accepted Nayantara and she is the darling of the household. Recently, the couple is said to have exchanged garlands during a big homam performed by Prabhu’s dad Sundaram Master.

“Last Tuesday, they were spotted at a Vadapalani theatre holding hands and watching Karthi’s Naan Mahaan Alla,” a source added. Prabhu Deva also took her to Paris during the shoot of Jayam Ravi’s Ich, which he’s directing.

Nayantara is currently focusing on completing all her pending projects in Tamil, Malayalam and Kannada such as Arya’s Boss Engira Baskaran, Electra in Malayalam and Symbol with Upendra in Kannada.

Leading Telugu heroine Ileana, who was to play the main heroine in Pawan Kalyan’s next project Khushiga (Telugu remake of the Bollywood flick Love Aaj Kal) has been reportedly replaced by leading Tamil heroine Trisha.

According to sources, Ileana had earlier given bulk dates to her other project 3 Idiots, directed by Shankar, but the film was delayed for various reasons, causing an unexpected date clash with Khushiga.

However, it is said that the final decision on Ileana’s replacement has been not taken yet officially by the film’s makers. Apparently, hero Pawan Kalyan would take the final call after his return from Jerusalem next week.
