Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna Confirm Wedding Date and Venue
In a much-anticipated announcement, popular Telugu film stars Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna have officially confirmed their upcoming marriage. The couple revealed that they will tie the knot in an intimate ceremony set to take place in the picturesque city of Udaipur on February 26. This confirmation comes after months of speculation and fan excitement surrounding their relationship status.
Dual Wedding Ceremonies to Honor Heritage
Reports now indicate that the couple has planned not one, but two distinct wedding ceremonies on the same day to honor both of their cultural backgrounds. According to sources, the first ceremony will follow traditional Telugu Hindu rituals, paying tribute to the groom's heritage. This event is scheduled for the morning of February 26.
Later in the evening, the couple will participate in a second wedding ceremony that will adhere to traditional Kodava customs, honoring Rashmika Mandanna's cultural roots. This dual celebration approach reflects the couple's desire to respect and incorporate both of their family traditions into their special day.
Intimate Guest List and Private Celebrations
Despite the grandeur of having two ceremonies, the couple is maintaining a remarkably tight and exclusive guest list for their wedding events. Only immediate family members and a select few close friends have received invitations to the ceremonies. Notably, reports confirm that no fellow actors or industry colleagues will be included in the wedding ceremony invitations, emphasizing the private nature of the occasion.
Unconventional Pre-Wedding Celebrations Begin
Before the official wedding ceremonies, Vijay and Rashmika have already kicked off their celebrations with an unconventional pre-wedding cricket bash. This lively event brought together both families in a spirited atmosphere and is said to be just the beginning of unique pre-wedding celebrations planned by the couple.
These non-traditional events will gradually transition into more classic wedding festivities, including traditional ceremonies such as the mehendi and sangeet functions that are customary in Indian weddings.
Grand Reception Planned for Industry Colleagues
While the wedding ceremonies themselves will remain private, the couple is preparing a grand reception for their colleagues from the entertainment industry. This star-studded event is scheduled to take place at the luxurious Taj Krishna hotel on Wednesday, March 4, 2026.
The reception is expected to be attended by numerous celebrities, given that both Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna maintain strong friendships and professional relationships across multiple film industries, including Telugu, Kannada, Tamil, and Hindi cinema.
Heartfelt Announcement to Fans
The couple made their relationship official and addressed their fans directly through a heartfelt social media note. They wrote: "Our Dearest loves, Before we made any plans, before we chose anything for ourselves— you were already there. With so much love, you gave us a name. You called us 'VIROSH'. So today — with full hearts, we name our coming together in your honour. We would like to name it — 'The Wedding of VIROSH'. Thank you for holding us with so much love. You are a part of us — always. Biggest hugs and full love!"
This personal message reflects the deep connection the couple feels with their fan base and their appreciation for the support they've received throughout their relationship journey. The wedding preparations continue as the couple finalizes details for their dual-ceremony celebration in Udaipur next month.
