Rashmika Mandanna’s Rome Break Is All About Food, Friends And Slow Travel

Rashmika Mandanna knows when to slow things down. After months of back-to-back shoots and promotions, the actor jetted off to Rome for a short break, and her latest Instagram photo dump offers a relaxed peek into that pause. The Rome posts are light, personal and refreshingly unpolished. The actress added no dramatic captions or curated travel manifesto.

Just Rashmika Mandanna doing what most travellers want to do in the city. Walk. Eat. Laugh. Repeat.

Inside Rashmika’s Rome diary

The first image from the post sets the tone. Rashmika smiles straight into the camera, a classic Roman building rising behind her. It feels spontaneous, like a moment caught mid-walk rather than staged for a feed.

Other photos show her exploring the streets with her girl

gang, soaking in the city’s everyday rhythm. Narrow lanes. Old stone walls. Cafés tucked into corners. Rome shows up as a lived-in city, not just a postcard.

She captioned the post simply: “Rome so far..”
Nothing more was needed.

Here Is Who Joined Her And Where Did They Go

Sharp-eyed fans spotted Anand Deverakonda, actor and brother of Vijay Deverakonda, in one of the pictures. The appearance added to the easy, friends-on-a-trip feel of the album.

One of the standout frames shows Rashmika posing in front of the Colosseum. Just her taking in the scale of it. Another set of images leans into food – plates, desserts and small indulgences. She is surely reminding us that Rome trips are incomplete without listening to your appetite.

Christmas Moods And Winter Layers

A day earlier, Rashmika had also shared photos from her Christmas vacation. Standing against a glowing tree, arms open, she leaned into winter dressing with a long black coat, a top and skirt, finished with a hat.

She captioned those photos, “Merry Christmas my loves!”

Back home, speculation around Rashmika and Vijay Deverakonda continues to swirl, especially after the two were spotted leaving Hyderabad together on December 24. Neither has addressed the rumours, including talk of an engagement or wedding plans.

For now, Rashmika seems focused on the moment. Work resumes soon, with the pan-India film Mysaa next on her slate. Until then, Rome has her full attention.
