Rakshit Shetty: Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda have reportedly been in a relationship for nearly five years, though they have always kept it under wraps. The two first worked together in the hit film Geetha Govindam, where their on-screen chemistry soon turned into real-life romance.
Despite being spotted together multiple times, neither Rashmika nor Vijay has officially confirmed their relationship. However, recent reports suggest that the couple secretly got engaged two days ago. While there’s been no official announcement, social media is flooded with news claiming their wedding will take place in February next year.
Interestingly, this would be Rashmika’s second engagement. Before entering Tollywood, she was engaged to Kannada actor Rakshit Shetty, her co-star from her debut film Kirik Party. The couple got engaged in a grand ceremony on July 3, 2017, but parted ways before the wedding. Now, amid the buzz surrounding Rashmika and Vijay’s engagement, Rakshit Shetty’s latest tweet saying “good news” has gone viral.
