South Indian actor, Vijay Deverakonda had made his debut in Telugu cinema with the film, Nuvvila in 2011. However, his performance in the movie, Arjun Reddy, gave him much-needed appreciation and recognition. Currently, he is one of the most-adored celebrities and enjoys a huge fan following. Back in 2019, Vijay Deverakonda was featured in Forbes India's List 30 under 30 after it was revealed that he was the most searched South Indian actor in the same year.
While Vijay Deverakonda is riding high on the professional front, his personal life also hits the headlines every now and then. The actor is reportedly in a steady relationship with his Dear Comrade co-star, Rashmika Mandanna, and people love their adorable chemistry. Moreover, their every public spotting adds fire to their dating rumours, and their fans are eagerly waiting for them to make their relationship official. However, neither Vijay nor Rashmika have addressed the rumours of their dating.
Episode 4 of the show, Koffee With Karan 7, featured the South sensation, Vijay Deverakonda, and his Liger co-star, Ananya Panday. During the show, Vijay spilled the beans about his relationship with his rumoured girlfriend, Rashmika Mandanna, and called her a 'darling'. The actor said that he's very fond of her and added that she's a very good friend. In his words:
"We have done 2 films together and she is a darling. I'm very fond of her. She is a very good friend of mine and we share so much through films like lots of highs and lots of lows. A bond gets created. In films, you are put into close proximity very quickly and so a bond develops quicker."
However, later, Ananya Panday dropped a major hint that Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Madanna are dating each other. During the rapid-fire round, when Ananya was asked to comment on Vijay's relationship status, she did a play on words and replied, "I feel like he is in a rush...to meet Mika...Singh. Get it." Soon, Ananya started to laugh, and Karan also understood the meaning behind the comment and said, "Oh, he is in a rush to meet Mika." Meanwhile, Vijay simply looked at Ananya and asked her, "You think that," and the latter nodded in affirmation.
