It’s official — the long-speculated romance between Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna is no longer a secret.
The couple has confirmed they are getting married and revealed that their big day will officially be called “The Wedding of VIROSH” — a name lovingly coined by their fans years ago.
Taking to their respective social media handles, Vijay and Rashmika shared a heartfelt note explaining that “VIROSH” was not chosen by planners or family traditions.
Instead, the name was created by fans who combined their names into a single identity — one that gradually became a symbol of affection and support.
In their emotional message, the couple wrote:
“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!”
By officially embracing the fan-favourite nickname, the duo has transformed a private ceremony into a shared celebration.
From ‘Geetha Govindam’ to forever
Fans have been rooting for their “happily ever after” ever since their first outing together in the blockbuster Geetha Govindam. What started as on-screen chemistry eventually turned into one of the most talked-about relationships in Indian cinema. Now, the open secret is finally out.
The announcement sent fans into a frenzy, with many calling it the “wedding of the year.”
Intimate Udaipur ceremony
According to reports, the wedding festivities will begin on February 24, featuring two days of pre-wedding ceremonies.
The couple is set to tie the knot around February 26 in a private ceremony in Udaipur. Despite their massive stardom, they have opted for a small and intimate gathering with immediate family and a handful of close friends.
They were recently spotted at the Hyderabad airport on Monday morning as they departed for Udaipur.
A grand reception is expected to take place in Hyderabad on March 4, likely attended by prominent names from both the South Indian and Hindi film industries.
By choosing a name created by admirers, Vijay and Rashmika have ensured their supporters are more than spectators. The wedding has become a tribute to loyalty, memories and years of unwavering fan support — turning their biggest life moment into something fans feel part of every step of the way.
What’s next for the power couple?
On the professional front, both stars are at the peak of their careers.
Vijay, fondly known as the ‘Rowdy’ star, has several major Telugu projects lined up, including the much-discussed Ranabaali.
Rashmika, also celebrated as ‘Srivalli’, is juggling a strong pan-India lineup. Her upcoming projects include her collaboration with Allu Arjun in AA22xA6, along with Animal Park, Mysaa, Cocktail 2 and more.
As wedding bells ring for VIROSH, fans are celebrating not just a union — but a love story years in the making.
