Rashmika Mandanna’s latest film, The Girlfriend, has been receiving immense love and praise from audiences and critics alike. To celebrate the movie’s success, a star-studded party was recently organised, drawing several celebrities from the industry. However, what truly stole the spotlight — and the internet’s heart — was Vijay Deverakonda’s affectionate gesture towards Rashmika, which quickly went viral on social media.
In a video shared by celebrity photographer Viral Bhayani, Vijay was seen congratulating Rashmika at the event. The highlight of the evening came when he sweetly kissed her hand, a moment that sent fans into a frenzy. Admirers flooded social media with heart emojis, reigniting long-standing rumours about the couple’s engagement and upcoming wedding.
As per multiple reports, Rashmika and Vijay secretly got engaged on October 3, 2025, at Vijay’s Hyderabad residence. The intimate ceremony was reportedly attended by close family members and friends, described by sources as “elegant and deeply personal.” Speculation suggests that the duo will tie the knot in a grand royal wedding in Udaipur on February 26, 2026. Adding fuel to the rumours, Rashmika was recently spotted wearing a sparkling ring, while Vijay was seen donning a matching band during a temple visit.
Meanwhile, expressing gratitude for the love pouring in for The Girlfriend, Rashmika took to Instagram and shared a heartfelt note. Posting the film’s poster, she wrote, “Big thank you to everyone who’s watched, loved, and supported the film — it means so much to us.” Produced by Dheeraj Mogilneni and Vidya Koppineni, the film also features Anu Emmanuel and Rao Ramesh in key roles. With her graceful charm and Vijay’s supportive presence, Rashmika continues to win hearts — both on-screen and off-screen.
