Fresh off their intimate wedding in Udaipur, Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna took a sweet, personal step to celebrate their union, personally inviting Union Home Minister Amit Shah to their upcoming wedding reception.
The gesture, captured in photos now circulating widely, reflects the couple’s warmth and grounded nature even amid the whirlwind of celebrity life.
In the images, the duo can be seen presenting a formal invitation alongside a silver idol of Lord Ganesh, carefully placed in an elegant box — a charming touch symbolising new beginnings.
Rashmika Mandanna looked effortlessly radiant in a mustard-hued suit, her hair left open with minimal makeup, while Vijay Deverakonda complemented her in a refined ivory indo-western outfit.
The couple shared warm smiles and friendly conversation with the minister, exuding a mix of joy, humility, and the quiet pride of a new chapter in their lives.
This personal approach comes just days after their private wedding at ITC Mementos, where only close friends and family were present.
The decision to personally invite even prominent figures like Amit Shah underscores the couple’s deep respect for tradition and relationships — a reflection of the values they’ve spoken about throughout their careers.
Earlier, Prime Minister Narendra Modi sent heartfelt congratulations to the newlyweds. In a letter to Vijay Deverakonda’s parents, he wrote, “It is a pleasure to be invited by you to the wedding of Vijay and Rashmika to be held on February 26, 2026. Heartiest congratulations, and greetings to the Deverakonda and Mandanna families on this truly joyous and auspicious occasion.”
The Prime Minister highlighted the sacredness of marriage, noting that the couple’s journey would be about companionship, friendship, and shared life. “Neither Vijay, nor Rashmika is new to scripts in their films. But this divinely scripted chapter of their real lives, filled with love and affection, will surely outshine the magic they have created on the silver screen," he said.
He added, “May the days, months and years to come be filled with shared dreams and their fulfilment. With thoughtfulness and love, may they share responsibilities, embrace each other’s imperfections, learn from each other’s strengths and journey through life as true partners."
After keeping their relationship private for over seven years, the couple chose to celebrate their wedding quietly, despite the crowd of fans and media outside.
Their team even distributed sweet boxes to those waiting, a small but joyful way to share the happiness without losing the intimacy of the day.
