After calling off her engagement with Rakshit Shetty in 2017, Rashmika was cast opposite Vijay in Geetha Govindam.
Their off-screen bond grew so strong that after the film’s 2018 release, fans couldn’t stop gushing about their chemistry.
They reunited in Dear Comrade, and the frenzy around the duo hit new heights.
Over the next few years, neither confirmed nor denied the rumours.
But fans connected the dots through their dinner dates, airport sightings and vacations with suspiciously similar backdrops.
From 2020 to 2022, Rashmika was spotted on several occasions in Vijay’s family.
During Animal promotions, Ranbir Kapoor teased Rashmika to call her “real hero,” and Vijay answered, saying “What’s up re?”
By 2024, both admitted they weren’t single without naming each other.
In 2025, they publicly supported each other’s films; Vijay kissed Rashmika Mandanna’s hand at an event.
They reportedly got engaged in October 2025 and announced their wedding on February 22 with an emotional post.
