Newlyweds
Rashmika Mandanna and
Vijay Deverakonda appear to be making the most of their time away from the film sets. After attending the Anime Awards in Tokyo, the actress shared a cheerful set of photos and videos from her Japan trip on Instagram. The post offered fans a peek into the couple's time abroad, as they tried out traditional street food and made sure to capture some blurry shots while they were at it.
Rashmika Mandanna drops travel photos with Vijay Deverakonda from Japan
The Instagram carousel had plenty for fans to look at. In one standout image, Rashmika was seen dressed in a traditional Japanese yukata, a lightweight kimono featuring an all-over pattern of orange and yellow sunflowers set against green leaves. A thin black strap fell over her shoulder, complemented by a broad black obi tied at the waist. A gold wristband on her left arm completed the look.
Elsewhere in the post, she was seen bouncing playfully across an installation filled with boulder-like mounds painted with neon polka dots. Other clips showed her exploring the streets and sampling local cuisine, giving fans a warm, candid slice of her Japanese adventure.
Vijay Deverakonda makes a blurry cameo in the post
While Rashmika was the clear focus of the post, Vijay Deverakonda made a few quiet appearances.
Tucked into the mix were blurry photographs of the couple spending time together, understated but enough to confirm they were very much travelling as a pair.
From Udaipur wedding to Japan getaway
Rashmika and Vijay tied the knot on February 26 in Udaipur, followed by a reception in Hyderabad attended by several prominent names from the film industry, including Ram Charan, Nani, Karan Johar, Kriti Sanon, and Allu Arjun. The couple has maintained a steady presence online ever since, and most recently melted hearts at the airport as fans spotted Vijay's chain which appeared to carry a pendant with the letter R.
The two had been romantically linked for years, but they only confirmed the romance after tying the knot in an intimate yet lavish ceremony. The actors also previously worked together in films like Geetha Govindam and Dear Comrade.
Rashmika Mandanna's next project
The couple's next on-screen reunion will be in 'Ranabaali', which will also mark their third collaboration and first film together since marriage. Directed by
Rahul Sankrityan and set between 1854 and 1878, the period drama is slated for a theatrical release on September 11.
Beyond 'Ranabaali', Vijay has recently commenced work on VDxShouryuv, while Rashmika has 'Cocktail 2' and 'Mysaa' lined up on her slate.
