Corroboration: 3 independent outlets

Telugu actor Prince Cecil has married his longtime girlfriend Sai Machiraju in Wanaka, New Zealand, in a traditional Telugu ceremony on August 24. The intimate wedding was attended by close family and friends, with the couple choosing New Zealand because Sai's family is based there. Prince Cecil, known for his role as Shannon Gonzalez in the 'DJ Tillu' franchise, made his acting debut in 2012 with 'Neeku Naaku Dash Dash'. He later appeared in films such as 'Bus Stop', 'Nenu Sailaja', and 'Tillu Square', and was a contestant on the first season of Bigg Boss Telugu. The couple first met at a friend's wedding in September 2025 and got engaged in Hyderabad in June 2026. They are reportedly planning a reception in Hyderabad for industry friends and well-wishers.
