In a much-anticipated event that has captured the hearts of fans nationwide, Telugu cinema’s beloved duo Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda officially became husband and wife on February 26, 2026. The couple, affectionately nicknamed “Virosh” by their admirers, chose the picturesque city of Udaipur in Rajasthan as the backdrop for their wedding festivities. The venue, the opulent ITC Mementos, provided a stunning and intimate setting befitting the grandeur of this union.
The wedding celebrations were thoughtfully designed to honor the distinct cultural backgrounds of both stars. The day began with a traditional Telugu Hindu ceremony, held in the morning at the auspicious muhurat time of 10:10 AM. This ritual paid homage to Vijay Deverakonda’s heritage, featuring customary rites and blessings that reflected his family’s traditions. As the sun set, the festivities transitioned into a Kodava ceremony in the evening, celebrating Rashmika Mandanna’s roots from Coorg. This dual-ceremony approach beautifully symbolized the merging of two rich cultural legacies.
Beyond the formal rituals, the multi-day wedding was a vibrant blend of elegance and joyous entertainment. One of the standout moments was the spirited “Virosh Premier League,” a cricket match organized exclusively for the couple and their close circle of family and friends. This playful event was followed by a sophisticated Japanese-themed dinner, where guests enjoyed a serene ambiance filled with soft pastel hues. The celebrations also featured lively poolside volleyball games, complete with floating trays serving refreshing drinks, adding a fun and relaxed vibe to the occasion.
Food played a central role in the festivities, with authentic South Indian cuisine served on traditional banana leaves, accompanied by fresh coconut water—a personal touch curated by Rashmika and Vijay themselves. The attention to detail extended to every aspect of the event, ensuring guests experienced a seamless blend of comfort and cultural richness. The guest list included several prominent figures from the film industry, such as director Sandeep Reddy Vanga, underscoring the couple’s close ties within the entertainment community.
Vijay Deverakonda went the extra mile by arranging special flights for over 50 guests traveling from various parts of India and abroad, highlighting the couple’s commitment to making their loved ones feel valued. Behind the scenes, a major OTT platform took charge of managing the venue logistics, hospitality, and overall arrangements, with the total expenditure reportedly exceeding Rs 200 million. Industry insiders suggest that negotiations are ongoing for exclusive streaming rights of the wedding, potentially valued at over Rs 300 million, signaling a new trend in celebrity nuptials and digital content collaboration.
While social media platforms are abuzz with excitement, it is important to clarify that many of the viral wedding photos circulating online are not from the actual event but are instead stills from the couple’s popular films such as “Geetha Govindam.” Rashmika and Vijay have so far kept official photographs from their wedding private, promising fans that personal announcements and images will be shared in due course. To extend the celebrations, the couple has planned a grand reception on March 4 in Hyderabad, where they will host a larger gathering of friends, family, and well-wishers to commemorate their new journey together.
