Actors Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna officially became husband and wife on February 26, 2026, in a private yet heartfelt wedding held in Udaipur, attended by close family members and loved ones.
The day began with a traditional Telugu Hindu ceremony in the morning, honoring the groom’s cultural background. In the evening, the couple paid tribute to the bride’s heritage through a traditional Kodava wedding ritual. For this second ceremony, Rashmika wore a saree specially gifted by her mother-in-law, Madhavi Deverakonda.
Following the exchange of vows, the newlyweds shared touching wedding photographs, prompting an outpouring of congratulations from across the Indian film industry. Vijay’s brother, actor Anand Deverakonda, expressed his joy in welcoming Rashmika into the family as his “Vadina” (sister-in-law in Telugu). In a warm social media post accompanied by a picture of the couple, he wrote: “There were so many times when fans would shout, ‘Vadina, ela unaru?’ and I never quite knew how to react. 😅 Today, my brother is married ♥️, and I’ve gained the most positive and compassionate person as my Vadina. I pray that for the rest of their lives, they continue to smile just like this. To a lifetime together! ♥️🧿 @thedeverakonda @rashmika_mandanna.”
Rashmika’s close friend and fellow actor Kalyani Priyadarshan, who attended the celebrations, shared an emotional reflection on the moment. She described watching “the kindest girl marry her best friend” in a stunning setting, noting the profound emotion as Rashmika walked toward Vijay. “Those slow, steady breaths and welled up eyes said everything,” she posted. “What a privilege to witness a love built with effort, respect and deep friendship at its core. Congratulations to my dearest Rashmika and Vijay. May this be the most beautiful beginning.”
The couple received blessings from several prominent figures in the industry. Rashmika’s Chhaava co-star Vicky Kaushal extended his wishes: “Congratulations Rashmika and Vijay! God bless you both with a life full of love, happiness & joy!!” Actress Kriti Sanon, who worked with Rashmika in Cocktail 2, praised the couple’s evident happiness and described Rashmika as one of the “most pure-hearted people” she knows, wishing them a lifetime of joyful memories.
