What fans believed for years has finally come true. After nearly eight years of speculation, quiet appearances together and endless social media theories, Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda have confirmed they are getting married.
In a sweet gesture to their loyal fanbase, the couple has even given their union a special name – “The Wedding of VIROSH,” a nickname lovingly created by fans by blending their names.
While they haven’t officially announced the wedding date or venue, the two were recently spotted arriving in Udaipur. Reports suggest they are set to tie the knot on February 26, 2026. The wedding is expected to be an intimate ceremony in Udaipur, followed by a grand reception in Hyderabad.
Their love story began in 2018 on the sets of Geetha Govindam, a romantic drama that became a massive box-office hit. Audiences instantly fell in love with their natural chemistry, making them one of the most adored onscreen pairs of Telugu cinema.
In 2019, they reunited for Dear Comrade, further strengthening their popularity as a duo. While their performances impressed fans, it was their off-screen bond that kept everyone guessing.
Over the years, Rashmika and Vijay were often seen together at dinners, vacations and industry events. Yet, in interviews, they consistently referred to each other as close friends, never confirming or denying the dating rumours. Despite their silence, fans remained convinced. Social media was filled with edits, fan pages and endless theories celebrating “VIROSH”.
Speculation reached new heights toward the end of 2025 when reports claimed they had got engaged in a private ceremony with close family and friends. Vijay’s team later confirmed the engagement, and fans noticed rings on the fingers of both the stars, adding to the excitement.
The long-awaited confirmation came through a joint social media post that touched hearts everywhere.
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!.”
And just like that, a love story that began on screen has found its happily ever after — with fans at the heart of it.
