Sobhita Dhulipala recently shared some unseen photos from her engagement ceremony with Naga Chaitanya on her Instagram handle. However, what grabbed everyone's attention was the poetic caption she used to express her love for Chay. She chose verses from Kurunthogai, translated by A.K. Ramanujan, to express the profound connection she shares with the actor. 

For the unversed, Sobhita's caption is from the excerpt from Kurunthogai, specifically poem 40, which explores themes of love and connection that transcend familial ties. The speaker questions the nature of their relationship with another person, pondering how their mothers and fathers are related, and how they themselves came to meet.

The caption read, "What could my mother be to yours? What kin is my father to yours anyway? And how did you and I meet ever? But in love our hearts are as red earth and pouring rain: mingled beyond parting. –From Kurunthogai, translated by A K Ramanujan."

Now, let's understand in detail the deeper meaning behind this poem. 

The lines "What could my mother be to yours?" and "What kin is my father to yours anyway?" mean that family ties do not define the relationship between two lovers. The speaker implies that love creates a bond that is more significant than any familial connection.

The imagery of "red earth and pouring rain" symbolizes the blending of two souls. Just as rain nourishes and transforms the earth, love enriches and deepens the connection between individuals, suggesting a unity that goes beyond mere acquaintance.

The progression from questioning familial ties to celebrating the union of hearts illustrates the journey of love. It shows how two individuals, initially strangers, can develop a deep emotional bond that transcends their backgrounds.

This poem is part of the Kurunthogai, a classical Tamil anthology from Sangam literature, which often explores themes of love and nature. The poem's structure and language reflect the rich tradition of Tamil poetry.

Meanwhile, Naga Chaitanya and Sobhita Dhulipala got engaged on August 8 in presence of their loved ones. Chay was earlier married to Samantha Ruth Prabhu but the couple parted ways in 2021, four years after tying the knot.
