Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda, a beloved couple in Tollywood, have largely kept their relationship private. However, recent reports indicate that they are preparing to take a significant step forward, with plans to marry after their secret engagement in October 2025.
The couple is expected to tie the knot on February 26, 2026, with a ceremony planned at an opulent palace in Udaipur, Rajasthan. Although the official announcement has yet to be made, speculation about the venue and date has captured public attention.
Reports suggest that Vijay and Rashmika exchanged engagement vows on October 3, 2025, in a private setting at Vijay’s home in Hyderabad. The event was a close-knit affair, attended by family and a few dear friends, ensuring utmost privacy for the couple. Their public relations team later confirmed the intimate nature of the ceremony.
During a promotional event for her recent film, Thamma, Rashmika was asked about the engagement rumors. With a shy smile, she acknowledged that the news was widely known. In another interview with Jagapathi Babu on his talk show, Jayammu Nischayammur, she showcased her engagement ring, highlighting its significance to her. When asked about the two rings she wore, Rashmika explained their importance, especially one that had taken on a special meaning since the engagement.
Shortly after the engagement, Vijay Deverakonda encountered a car accident while traveling on the Hyderabad-Bengaluru Highway. Fortunately, he emerged unscathed despite the significant damage to his vehicle. Reports indicate that the other driver did not stop, leading to a police complaint filed by Vijay’s driver. An investigation into the hit-and-run incident is currently underway.
Just a day prior to the accident, Vijay had visited the Prasanthi Nilayam Ashram of Sri Sathya Sai Baba in Puttaparthi with his family. This trip followed his engagement with Rashmika and was characterized by a peaceful atmosphere. Photos captured during the visit revealed Vijay wearing a noticeable gold ring, further fueling enthusiasm among fans about their engagement, although neither has officially confirmed the news.
Vijay and Rashmika’s love story began on the set of Geetha Govindam, where their friendship blossomed into romance. The success of this film led to increased public interest in their relationship, which deepened further while working on their subsequent film, Dear Comrade. As their love story continues to unfold, fans eagerly anticipate the upcoming wedding.
