Rashmika Mandanna & Vijay Deverakonda Wedding Live Update: Stars flood social media with wishes

The wedding festivities of actors Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna have begun in the scenic setting of Udaipur, and the early glimpses shared on Instagram suggest a celebration that blends playfulness, elegance and intimacy. With their wedding set for February 26, the couple—fondly called “Virosh” by fans—has begun the week with contrasting snapshots that reveal both vibrant outdoor fun and serene dinner-time refinement.

Vijay’s Instagram Stories captured a cheerful, relaxed gathering beside a sunlit pool. One picture, taken through a volleyball net, showed silhouettes mid-action in a spirited game of pool volleyball. The ball hovered above the water, frozen in motion, offering a sense of the carefree joy marking the groom’s side of the celebrations. Another frame revealed lush greenery surrounding the pool, a volleyball net stretched across the water and a tray lined with bright red cups, reinforcing the informal, party-like mood before the main wedding ceremonies begin.

Rashmika’s shared moments reflected a contrasting yet complementary atmosphere. Her photos highlighted an evening dinner setup glowing under warm, golden lights. A long table stretched across the venue, detailed with blush lilies, green hydrangeas and fresh fruit accents such as grapes and green apples. A custom menu card hinted at an elegant Japanese dining experience curated especially for the guests. She also posted a blurry shot of the dishes served, suggesting a thoughtfully structured gourmet meal.

One intimate detail drew particular attention—the napkins embroidered with “VIROSH,” the fan-created portmanteau that has now become an official symbol of their union. The personalised touch reinforced the emotional significance of the celebrations and reflected the couple’s appreciation for their supporters.

The festivities are taking place at the luxurious Mementos by ITC Hotels, Ekaaya Udaipur, known for its expansive landscapes and refined ambience.

Just a day prior, the couple confirmed their wedding through matching notes on Instagram. The message read, “Our dearest loves… With so much love, you gave us a name. You called us 'Virosh'… We would like to name it — 'The Wedding of VIROSH'.” Their acknowledgment of fan support added emotional warmth to the announcement.

The unfolding wedding celebrations of actors Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna—popularly known together as “Virosh”—have begun capturing attention as the couple offers the first visual glimpses from their pre-wedding festivities in Udaipur. Their marriage, scheduled for February 26, has sparked significant excitement among fans, particularly after they officially embraced the fan-coined name “Virosh” in their public wedding announcement.

The festivities reflect two distinct moods. Vijay’s posts portray a lively and relaxed start. Through his Instagram Stories, he shared a photo taken from behind a volleyball net, showing a group mid-game in a pool. The floating ball and silhouetted figures convey a sense of energetic camaraderie and effortless joy. Another frame featuring a volleyball net by the poolside, lush greenery and bright red drink cups further emphasised the easy-going atmosphere surrounding his side of the gathering.

In contrast, Rashmika’s visuals depict an evening steeped in elegant warmth. Her carefully framed dinner-table shot showcased a long, beautifully lit table decorated with blush lilies, green hydrangeas and fresh fruit elements including grapes and green apples. The customised Japanese menu card suggested a curated culinary experience designed with refinement and intention. The glow of surrounding lights added depth to the ambience, making the dinner look intimate and personalised. An embroidered detail on napkins stood out—the word “VIROSH,” symbolising the unity and identity the couple shares and now celebrates publicly.

The setting for the wedding, Mementos by ITC Hotels, Ekaaya Udaipur, serves as an ideal backdrop for a celebration that values both luxury and subtlety. Its tranquil environment aligns seamlessly with the couple’s preference for a wedding that is festive yet rooted in privacy.

Just a day earlier, the couple confirmed their marriage through a heartfelt note on Instagram. They wrote, “Before we made any plans… you called us ‘Virosh’… We would like to name it — 'The Wedding of VIROSH'.”
