Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda Tie the Knot in Udaipur
Udaipur, February 26, 2026: In a much-anticipated union that has thrilled fans across the country, popular film stars Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda were married on Thursday in the scenic city of Udaipur, Rajasthan. The ceremony took place at the luxurious ITC Mementos hotel in an intimate yet elegant setting attended by close family members and select friends.
Fondly dubbed “Virosh” by admirers—a portmanteau of their names—the couple solemnized their marriage through two traditional ceremonies reflecting their respective cultural roots. The morning wedding followed Telugu Hindu rituals in accordance with Vijay Deverakonda’s heritage, with the auspicious muhurat held at approximately 10:10 a.m. Later in the day, a Kodava (Coorgi) ceremony was conducted to honor Rashmika Mandanna’s Kodava traditions from Coorg, making the occasion a unique cultural celebration.
The wedding festivities spanned several days. A lively sangeet ceremony was held on February 24, followed by a vibrant haldi function on February 25, setting a joyful tone for the grand day. Despite the grandeur of the arrangements, the couple chose to keep the celebrations private, allowing only a limited guest list to attend.
Soon after the ceremonies, Rashmika and Vijay shared their first official wedding photographs on social media, delighting millions of followers. In an emotional message, Rashmika wrote, “I’ve become the woman I have always dreamt of being, because you made her who she is today!” Vijay echoed the sentiment, posting, “I made my best friend… my wife,” along with the date 26.02.2026, a caption that quickly went viral.
The actors first sparked dating rumours after starring together in successful films such as Geetha Govindam (2018) and Dear Comrade (2019). Although speculation about their relationship persisted for years, the pair kept their romance private for nearly seven years before confirming it publicly earlier this month.
Sources present at the ceremony said the couple appeared visibly emotional during key rituals, particularly during the Vedic chants and the varmala exchange, highlighting the depth of their long-standing bond.
Social media has since been flooded with congratulatory messages from fans, colleagues, and well-wishers across the film industry, many calling it one of the most awaited celebrity weddings in recent times. Their journey—from celebrated on-screen pair to real-life partners—has long captivated audiences, and their marriage marks a joyous new chapter in both their personal and professional lives.
With this grand yet intimate celebration, Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda have officially begun their life together as one of Indian cinema’s most beloved couples.
