‘Introducing to you now ‘My Husband’: Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda tie the knot in traditional ensembles; first pics out | Fashion News
3 min readNew DelhiUpdated: Feb 26, 2026 07:11 PM Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda have finally said yes to forever after seven long years of dating. The Geetha Govindam co-stars kept their Telugu-Kovada wedding ceremony an intimate affair, joined their closest friends and family at the ITC Mementoes hotel in Udaipur today.
For the special occasion, the couple chose ensembles from designer Anamika Khanna’s bridal atelier. While Mandanna chose a rust sari framed with a striking red border, with temple-house motifs intricately embroidered across the drape, echoing carved sanctums and spiritual geometry. Detailed hand embroidery in antique gold transformed the fabric into a canvas of devotion and craftsmanship.
Deverakonda, on the other hand, looked handsome in an ivory dhoti silhouette paired with a vermillion angavastram draped around his shoulders, intricately embroidered with forest and temple-inspired motifs that symbolise power, lineage, and sacred architecture. Celebrating the textile legacy of Hyderabad, his ensemble drew from the strength of the Vanasingaram weave.
Styled Ami Patel, heavy gold jewellery kept their look traditional, and the hint of aalta on Vijay’s palms added a soft yet rooted touch.

Missed her in a way that made me feel like my day would’ve been better if she were around.Like my meals would’ve felt more wholesome if she were sitting across from me.Like my workouts would’ve been more fun and less of a punishment if she were doing them with me.Like I needed her – just to feel that sense of home and calm, no matter where I was.
So, I made my best friend… my wife. 😀❤️26.02.2026.”
