February 23, 2026: Rashmika Mandanna is ready to marry the love of her life, Vijay Deverakonda, on February 26, 2026, in Udaipur. After many years of rumours, Rashmika confirmed her relationship and wedding plans on social media. Fans are now waiting to see the couple’s first photo as husband and wife.

Rashmika and Vijay always kept their relationship private. For many months, there were talks about their wedding. Many people said that big film stars would attend the wedding. However, the event is said to be small and private.

There were also questions about whether Rashmika invited her former co-stars from Kirik Party. Pramod Shetty, who is a close friend of Rakshit Shetty, spoke about this in a media interaction.

Rakshit Shetty’s Reaction to the Wedding

According to reports, Pramod Shetty said that he has not received a wedding invitation from Rashmika. He added that if he receives one, he will attend. He also said that he feels Rashmika may not invite them, and that it is not something new.

Pramod also spoke about Rakshit Shetty’s reaction. He said, “Rakshit Shetty is not a kid eating chocolate and sitting around feeling guilty about it.” He further added, “Rakshit will rise like a phoenix. He gave a statement recently, didn’t he? He hasn’t gone anywhere.”

Pramod explained that Rakshit takes time to focus on his work. He said, “That’s how he writes his films. He takes some time, then comes back and calmly makes a movie. He isn’t in as much of a hurry as we are.”

For those who do not know, Rakshit Shetty and Rashmika Mandanna were once engaged. They met while working on the film Kirik Party, which was Rashmika’s first movie. They became close and got engaged in July 2017. In September 2018, they announced that they had ended their engagement due to compatibility issues. There was no public fight between them.

In 2023, while promoting his film Sapta Sagaradaache Ello: Side B, Rakshit said that he and Rashmika were still in touch. He said, “Yes, Rashmika and I are still in touch. She had a big dream in the world of cinema. Accordingly, she is moving towards that dream. She has the will to achieve the task she set out to do. We should pat her on the back for her achievement.”

Now, as Rashmika prepares to begin a new chapter with Vijay Deverakonda, fans continue to follow the journey of all three actors with interest and support.
