Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda relationship

Overview

Actors Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda, who reportedly married in an intimate ceremony in Udaipur in February 2026, have drawn significant public attention following their appearance on the ninth season of ‘Koffee With Karan’.

During a promotional preview for the show, Deverakonda claimed that Mandanna had been asking him to marry her for a year, jokingly stating she had asked him “100 times” before they wed. While the couple shared playful details about their relationship and professional chemistry, the comments sparked a social media debate. Some netizens criticized Deverakonda, accusing him of humiliating Mandanna by discussing her romantic persistence in a public forum.

In response to the intense social media backlash, Mandanna issued a statement describing the online reaction as an “angry mob” and criticized what she termed “bullying dressed up as feminism.” She clarified that their marriage was a conscious decision to build a life together rather than a matter of grand proposals, adding that she is “OBSESSED” with her husband and is currently very happy.

Deverakonda also addressed the controversy via social media, calling Mandanna his “best friend, my wife, my woman” and declaring that the couple is “gloriously happy.” He dismissed the speculation and shared a satirical video poking fun at how social media users dissect celebrity relationship dynamics.

Following what they describe as targeted harassment and the circulation of manipulated content, the couple’s team has filed a cybercrime complaint in Hyderabad. The complaint alleges the spread of misinformation, including fabricated claims and impersonation. The legal team is seeking an investigation into whether these activities constitute a coordinated or paid campaign to damage the couple's reputation.
