A weekend has passed since the news of Vijay Devarakonda and Rashmika Mandanna surfaced online. Although the couple has not yet confirmed this joyful development, the initial rumor created a wave of excitement among fans. Adding to the buzz, Vijay was seen visiting Sri Sathya Sai Baba’s ashram with family. Notably, a ring on his finger in viral photos attracted significant attention. Meanwhile, Rashmika’s initial post amidst the news focused on her work, showcasing behind-the-scenes moments from her upcoming project ‘Thamma’ while avoiding direct mention of the engagement.
While an official confirmation from the couple is still awaited, Vijay’s team has acknowledged the news, stating that the couple got engaged in a private ceremony on Friday, October 3, at his residence in Hyderabad with close family members present. No public photos have emerged yet. The team also confirmed plans for a wedding in February 2026, with the couple likely opting for a destination venue. Their romance is reminiscent of a classic love story that began on set. The pair first met during the filming of Geetha Govindam (2018), where their on-screen chemistry sparked rumors of a deeper relationship. They later reunited for Dear Comrade (2019), which further fueled speculation.
Over the years, both have maintained privacy regarding their personal lives, often steering clear of public confirmations about dating. Nonetheless, observant fans have consistently connected their activities together, whether during vacations or at home rituals.
