It’s official—the open secret isn't a secret anymore. Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna have finally confirmed their relationship and announced they are getting married, giving fans the 'happily ever after' they’ve been rooting for since their first outing, Geetha Govindam.

With their big day just around the corner, Vijay and Rashmika took to social media to share an update. Officially embracing the fan-favourite nickname, 'The Wedding of VIROSH', for their upcoming wedding.

Widely anticipated as the wedding of the year, Vijay and Rashmika shared a personal note that made their fans go berserk. They revealed that their wedding will be called 'VIROSH', which was a gift from their fans. What started as a simple fan-made buzz years ago turned out to be a powerful symbol of love, and the couple is now proudly using that identity given to them by fans.

In a personal message, the couple explained that this name was born from the years of affection shown by their fans. By choosing a name coined by their fans, they’ve turned a fan-made identity into the official theme of their newest chapter in life.

Sharing a personal note, the couple said:

“Our Dearest loves,

Before we made any plans,

before we chose anything for ourselves—

you were already there.

With so much love,

you gave us a name.

You called us ‘VIROSH’.

So today — with full hearts,

we name our coming together in your honour.

We would like to name it —

‘The Wedding of VIROSH’.

Thank you for holding us with so much love.

You are a part of us — always.

Biggest hugs and full love!”

Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna are set to marry in a private ceremony in Udaipur around February 26, 2026, with a reception in Hyderabad on March 4. The pair was spotted at the Hyderabad airport on Monday morning, leaving for Udaipur.

The Udaipur ceremony is expected to be an intimate affair with close family and industry friends, while the Hyderabad reception will likely be a star-studded gala for the South Indian and Hindi film fraternities.

On the work front, the 'Rowdy' star and 'Srivalli' are at the top of their game. Vijay has a string of major Telugu projects lined up, most notably the much-discussed Ranabaali. Rashmika is juggling her multiple pan-India lineup, including her highly anticipated collaboration with Allu Arjun in AA22xA6, Animal Park, Mysaa, Cocktail 2 and more.
