Actors Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda have seemingly confirmed their engagement with heartwarming social media posts — though without an official announcement.
After reports of a private engagement ceremony in Hyderabad last week, Rashmika shared a new video that gave fans a clear glimpse of her diamond engagement ring.
The video, posted on her Instagram, featured Rashmika sitting on the floor with her pet dog Aura while her upcoming film song 'Rahein Na Rahein Hum' from Thamma played in the background. As she smiled and interacted with her pet, the ring on her finger was visible, sending fans into a frenzy.
Rashmika’s playful post and fans reactions
Sharing the video, Rashmika wrote, “This was the first song I heard from the film while shooting, and still… I’m in LOVE with this songgg. Also, can we talk about Aura vibing with meee? Imagine she knew that the girl on the screen is me… she would be so confused! I wish she could talk ya! Or rather sing this song!!”

However, fans were quick to shift focus from the song to the sparkling ring. One user commented, “You posted this to show your engagement ring, not the song.” Another wrote, “And this is how she confirms.” Others celebrated the news, saying, “Finally, we caught the ring! Congratulations are in order.”
Vijay Deverakonda also spotted wearing ring
Earlier this week, Vijay Deverakonda was spotted visiting Bhagwan Sri Sathya Sai Baba’s Maha Samadhi in Puttaparthi with his family, where fans noticed his engagement ring.
His PRO shared a video of the visit on X (formerly Twitter), writing: “#VijayDeverakonda is at Bhagwan Sri Sathya Sai Baba’s Maha Samadhi in Puttaparthi to seek divine blessings.” The post only fueled excitement among fans who had been waiting for confirmation from the couple.
Engagement confirmed, wedding in 2026
According to Vijay’s team, the couple got engaged in a private ceremony in Hyderabad attended by close family and friends. They are expected to tie the knot in February 2026.
Rashmika and Vijay have been rumoured to be dating since their on-screen chemistry in Geetha Govindam (2018) and Dear Comrade (2019). Their relationship has long been a topic of public curiosity, with fans often noticing the duo posting pictures from identical vacation spots.
In 2024, both confirmed they were “not single” but refrained from naming their partners — a statement fans now see as confirmation of their relationship.
Public appearances and professional updates
The couple has also made several public appearances together, including leading the 43rd India Day Parade in New York last August and attending Bharat Beyond Borders, where they represented Indian cinema internationally.
On the professional front, Rashmika Mandanna was last seen in Kuberaa alongside Dhanush and Nagarjuna. She will next appear in Maddock Films’ horror-comedy Thamma, co-starring Ayushmann Khurrana, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, and Paresh Rawal, slated for a Diwali 2025 release. She is also working on Cocktail 2 with Kriti Sanon and Shahid Kapoor, as well as The Girlfriend and Mysaa.
Vijay Deverakonda, on the other hand, was last seen in Kingdom, featuring Satyadev and Bhagyashree Borse, directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri and produced by Sithara Entertainments and Fortune Four Cinemas.
Fans celebrate
Following the video, social media has been abuzz with congratulatory messages for the couple. Admirers have flooded Rashmika and Vijay’s fan pages with heartfelt posts, marking the moment as one of the most anticipated celebrity unions in South Indian cinema.
While both stars have yet to make an official joint statement, fans believe their subtle confirmations speak louder than words.
