Rashmika Mandanna is a versatile Indian actress who has worked in Telugu, Kannada, Hindi, and Tamil films. She debuted in Hindi films with Amitabh Bachchan's starred Goodbye in 2022 and has been captivating hearts ever since. However, it seems like the fans are not the only ones who are captivated by the actress.
Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda recently opened up about their relationship not long ago. Days after Vijay allegedly confirmed his relationship, photos of Rashmika and Vijay at a reportedly secret lunch date went viral. The Pushpa 2 star has now opened up about her wedding plans at the launch of Pushpa 2’s new song, Kissik, in Chennai on November 24, 2025. During the event, the hosts asked Rashmika if she would marry someone from within the film industry or if her future husband needed to be someone from the outside.

"Would you marry someone from the film industry, or should your husband be someone from outside the industry? If you give us some clarity, we’ll find out you, the boy."
Rashmika Mandanna, who looked as gorgeous as ever in a beautiful saree paired with traditional jewellery and gajra, responded to the host by saying that everyone knows about her stance on marrying someone from the industry. Her sly response left Allu Arjun and everyone in the hall in splits, and the crowd erupted in big cheer. She further added that she knows what they want to know, to which the co-host said that he is completely unaware of what Rashmika is referring to. Rashmika said:
"I know what answer you want. I know it well. Let’s not delve into that right now, I’ll tell you later, personally."
The rumours surrounding Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda's relationship have been around for a while now. However, the duo had maintained that they were merely friends until Vijay confirmed he was in a relationship. In an interview with Curly Tales, Vijay shared that he has dated a co-star before. He added that everyone has to get married at one point unless they decide not to. He said:
"I have (dated a co-star before). I’m 35, you think I would be single? We all have to (get married) at some point unless it’s a choice not to."
Vijay and Rashmika were first seen together on-screen in Geetha Govindam, released in 2018. Their onscreen chemistry sparked rumours about their off-screen relationship. The speculations intensified when the duo was seen together once again in Dear Comrade in 2019 and have often been spotted on holidays together. However, it was not until recently, in November 2024, that they reportedly confirmed their relationship. On the work front, Rashmika will be seen in Pushpa 2. The film will release on December 5, 2024, and bring her back as 'Srivalli'.
