The internet finally has what it has been waiting for. Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda’s first hand-in-hand picture from their sangeet ceremony has surfaced online, and fans cannot stop talking about it.
The viral clip, reportedly from their pre-wedding celebrations in Udaipur, shows the couple walking together amidst warm lights and a festive backdrop.
Rashmika is seen dressed in an elegant traditional outfit, while Vijay walks beside her, the two holding hands in a quiet but powerful moment. The two were simply walking hand in hand, together. And its simplicity has struck a chord with fans.
The sangeet ceremony, held on Tuesday night, was already making headlines for its emotional moments.
Earlier reports revealed that Vijay’s mother grew emotional while blessing Rashmika and lovingly called her “My darling Rushi,” a gesture that reportedly left guests teary-eyed. The evening also included the gifting of traditional heirloom bangles, symbolising acceptance into the family.
Now, this first visual of the couple from the ceremony has added to the emotional wave surrounding their wedding. Social media platforms were flooded with clips and screenshots within minutes of the video surfacing. Fan pages quickly dubbed it the “first official VIROSH moment” from the festivities.
Vijay and Rashmika’s journey began in 2018 on the sets of Geetha Govindam, a film that became a massive hit and established them as one of Telugu cinema’s most loved on-screen pairs. They reunited in Dear Comrade the following year, further strengthening their fan base. Over the years, their off-screen appearances together kept rumours alive, though both maintained they were close friends.
On February 22, the couple officially confirmed their wedding and revealed that they have named their union “The Wedding of VIROSH,” a name given to them by their fans. The announcement was heartfelt, thanking supporters for standing by them even before they made anything public.
The Udaipur wedding is being kept private, with only close family and friends in attendance. However, reports suggest that a grand reception will take place in Hyderabad on March 4, where members of the film fraternity are expected to join the celebrations.
For now, one simple hand-holding moment has become the internet’s favourite image, capturing years of speculation, friendship and love in a single frame.
