Vijay Deverakonda kisses Rashmika Mandanna’s hand at 'The Girlfriend' event — fans go wild over their first PDA!

Hyderabad/IBNS: Telugu film power couple Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda finally had some PDA moment at a recent event where the latter kissed his girlfriend's hand.

Vijay had attended the success event of Rashmika's latest release, The Girlfriend, in the city in a show of support.

Rashmika blushed when Vijay took her hand and kissed her in his first public display of affection.

After months of speculation, new reports suggest that actors Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda are all set to tie the knot on February 26, 2026.

According to sources cited by NDTV and India Today, the wedding will reportedly be a grand yet intimate affair, combining South Indian and Rajasthani traditions.

Insiders close to the couple have confirmed that Rashmika and Vijay got engaged on October 3, 2025, in a private ceremony attended only by close family and friends.

The hush-hush event was kept away from the media spotlight.

From reel to real

Rashmika and Vijay first shared screen space in Geetha Govindam (2018), followed by Dear Comrade (2019).

Since then, their on-screen chemistry has often spilled into real-life rumours of romance, although both actors have consistently maintained that they are “just close friends.”

As of now, neither Rashmika nor Vijay has issued an official statement about the reported engagement or wedding.

If the reports are true, their union would mark one of the most high-profile celebrity weddings in South Indian cinema.
