Speculation Grows Over Rashmika-Vijay Relationship as Birthday Posts Go Viral

Tollywood's sensational star Vijay Deverakonda celebrated his 36th birthday on Friday. On this occasion, actress Rashmika Mandanna, known to be a close associate of Vijay Deverakonda, conveyed special wishes through social media.

Rashmika Mandanna shared a charming picture of Vijay Deverakonda on her Instagram Stories and expressed her wishes. “I’m late again. But happiest birthday, Vijju. I hope your days are filled with blessings, love, happiness, health, wealth, peace, and everything else,” Rashmika stated.

It is well known that Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda co-starred in the films Dear Comrade and Geetha Govindam.

Although Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda have never made an official statement about the nature of their relationship, fans and netizens strongly believe they are dating. Their affectionate social media exchanges and seemingly similar backgrounds in photos taken during foreign trips have fueled these speculations further. In April, when Rashmika travelled to Oman to celebrate her 29th birthday, reports suggested that Vijay was also abroad at the time. Observers noted that the backgrounds in their social media pictures looked remarkably similar.

Meanwhile, according to the latest information, Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna are reportedly reuniting in director Rahul Sankrityan's upcoming film VD14. To mark Vijay Deverakonda’s birthday, the production company Mythri Movie Makers released the first look poster of the film. “The gods gave him strength. The war gave him purpose. Team #VD14 wishes Vijay Deverakonda a very happy birthday,” the studio stated on its official X account.

In the poster, Vijay Deverakonda is seen meditating peacefully in a place of worship. Wearing only a dhoti and sitting with his back to the camera, he appears with multiple scars on his back and noticeably long hair, indicating that he will appear in a completely new avatar in this film.

At present, Vijay Deverakonda is awaiting the release of another high-budget film titled Kingdom. Rashmika Mandanna, on the other hand, is busy with several projects including Thama, Kubera, The Girlfriend, and Rainbow.
