A Fan-Named Union
The much-anticipated wedding of popular actors Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda has finally been confirmed, igniting widespread excitement across
social media platforms. In a touching gesture, the couple revealed that their union will be celebrated as 'The Wedding of VIROSH.' This distinctive name isn't a product of event planners or familial tradition, but rather a testament to the profound connection they share with their devoted fanbase. Years before the couple even considered marriage, their admirers affectionately merged their names to create 'VIROSH,' a symbol of their shared journey and on-screen chemistry. By choosing this fan-originated name for their wedding, Rashmika and Vijay are extending an invitation to their supporters to be an integral part of their joyous occasion, acknowledging that their fans have already imbued their relationship with meaning and identity.
Heartfelt Fan Inclusion
In a deeply personal message shared on social media, Rashmika and Vijay expressed their profound gratitude to their fans, emphasizing how their supporters were present long before any wedding plans took shape. The couple articulated that their fans, through their immense love, bestowed upon them the name 'VIROSH.' This acknowledgment serves as a beautiful dedication, with the couple naming their union in honor of this fan-created identity. Their statement conveyed, '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!' This sentiment underscores the importance of their fans' unwavering support throughout their careers and personal lives.
Wedding Details Emerge
Amidst the official announcement, details surrounding the much-speculated wedding have surfaced, adding to the public's eager anticipation. An alleged wedding card circulating on social media suggests that the 'Geetha Govindam' co-stars are slated to exchange vows on February 26th. This intimate ceremony is reportedly set to be followed by a grand reception on March 4th in Hyderabad. The text on the rumored card invites guests to share in this significant moment, stating, 'I’m writing to share some special news and to invite you to be part of a huge moment in our lives. With the love and blessings of our families, Rashmika and I will be getting married on 26.02.26 in a small and intimate ceremony.' The invitation further elaborates on the significance of their loved ones' presence, expressing, 'As we begin this new chapter—celebrating and creating memories around our union—it would truly mean a lot to us to celebrate with those who have been a part of our journeys. Your presence and blessings would make this occasion even more special for us.'
A Decade of Rumors
Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna, who have shared the screen in successful films like 'Geetha Govindam' and 'Dear Comrade,' have been the subject of relationship rumors for years. Their visible off-screen camaraderie, joint holidays, and frequent social media interactions have consistently fueled speculation about their bond. Despite their public statements often describing themselves as 'just friends,' Rashmika has previously alluded to Vijay being a significant 'blessing' in her life, particularly acknowledging his support during challenging emotional periods. Reports from last October indicated that the couple had an intimate engagement ceremony in Hyderabad, and they are now reportedly set to formalize their union with a wedding in Udaipur on February 26th, a date that fans are eagerly anticipating as the highlight of the year.
