The world of entertainment erupted this week as Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda—one of South Indian cinema’s most adored off-screen couples—officially sealed their relationship in marriage on February 26, 2026, in a private ceremony in Udaipur, Rajasthan that instantly became a global trending moment.
For years, fans had speculated about the real-life romance between the two co-stars—whose chemistry first lit up screens in hits like Geetha Govindam and Dear Comrade—but today that speculation transformed into celebration as the couple shared joyful glimpses from their union on social media, prompting an outpouring of global reactions from celebrities and fans alike.
In heartfelt posts that have since gone viral, Rashmika addressed her fans with an emotional note introducing Vijay as her husband, expressing deep gratitude for his unwavering support throughout their journey together. In her message, she said Vijay taught her “what true love feels like” and described how he encouraged her to chase her dreams boldly and without fear.
Vijay also responded with his own touching message, referring to Rashmika as his “best friend” and sharing how much he missed her presence during times apart before they finally united as life partners. His words—relayed alongside intimate wedding photos—quickly flooded social media platforms like Instagram and X (formerly Twitter), sparking widespread admiration for the sincerity and warmth of their declarations.
A Wedding That Took Social Media by Storm
Online fan communities responded almost immediately. The hashtag #MrAndMrsDeverakonda began trending across numerous countries, with supporters celebrating the couple affectionately known as “VIROSH”—a blend of their names coined by fans long before the official announcement.
Across Instagram, X, and Facebook, fan art, messages of congratulations, and celebratory reels featuring highlights from the ceremony spread like wildfire—each expressing joy for the actors’ new chapter together. Celebrities from various film industries also extended their love, posting warm wishes and heartfelt messages in tribute to the newlyweds.
Even moments outside the ceremony made headlines: notable film personalities were asked about the wedding at public events, including actor-filmmaker Rishab Shetty, who chose to avoid commenting during a recent spiritual visit—an interaction that sparked curiosity and additional online chatter.

Though the wedding was intentionally private—attended by close family and friends—the couple shared select highlights with their followers, including traditional rituals that honored both Telugu and Kodava cultural traditions. The morning ceremony at Udaipur’s scenic venues was filled with treasured moments and heartfelt exchanges that quickly made the rounds across global entertainment media.
One especially memorable highlight from the celebrations was the sangeet night, where Rashmika delivered a heartfelt dance tribute to Vijay, performing to a song with deep personal meaning for the pair—further cementing their genuine connection and stirring fans worldwide.
