When Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda stirred dating rumours with their Vietnam holiday pictures

Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda are known for their strong bond, often making headlines for allegedly dating each other. Their on-screen chemistry in Geetha Govindam and Dear Comrade made fans root for the duo.
Several incidents have fuelled rumours about their relationship, one of which involved identical backgrounds in their vacation pictures shared on Instagram a few years ago.

Vijay shared photos from his Vietnam trip, where he was seen enjoying food from a street vendor and posing for the camera. Around the same time, Rashmika also posted pictures from her vacation with a similar background, leading fans to speculate that the Khushi actor's photos were taken by Rashmika, and vice versa. Rashmika also shared her own set of pictures from Vietnam, donning a local hat and exploring the vibrant markets. Although she refrained from tagging or featuring Vijay in her post, fans couldn’t help but draw connections, speculating that the two were on vacation together.

Instagram users were quick to flood their comment sections with questions about who took their pictures. One fan wrote, “Who is the cameraman? 😊” Another user commented, “Finally Lilly @rashmika_mandanna got Bobby @thedeverakonda ❤️🔐.”
This wasn’t the only time fans suspected the duo of vacationing together. Their posts from the Maldives also sparked similar reactions, as fans noticed striking similarities in the locations. In a recent interview, Vijay confirmed being in a relationship but added that he does not believe in unconditional love.
On the work front, Rashmika is gearing up for the release of 'Pushpa 2: The Rule' alongside Allu Arjun, which is set to hit theatres on December 5. Meanwhile, Vijay Deverakonda will be seen in 'VD12', directed by Gautam Tinnanuri.
