The Vijay Deverakonda Rashmika Mandanna wedding, or as the internet calls it, the VIROSH wedding, was everything you’d expect and then some. Udaipur. Lakeside ceremonies. A cricket match with Bollywood stars. And two people who kept their relationship private for years finally letting the world in. Here’s everything that happened.
TL;DR: Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna got married in Udaipur at a royal heritage property. The multi-day celebration included haldi, sangeet, and a star-studded guest list. The couple wore Sabyasachi for the main ceremony. Social media basically melted.
Where Did the VIROSH Wedding Take Place?
Udaipur. Specifically, a heritage lakeside property that’s become the go-to destination for celebrity weddings in India. I won’t pretend to be surprised by the choice, it’s gorgeous and private, which is exactly what Vijay and Rashmika needed given how much attention this wedding attracted.
The property was reportedly booked out for five days, with security so tight that even guests had their phones collected at the entrance for certain ceremonies. Smart move. It meant the couple controlled exactly what the public saw and when.
The first official photos dropped on Instagram about 12 hours after the main ceremony, and honestly? They were perfect. Warm, natural, and clearly shot by someone who knows what they’re doing.

What Were the Ceremonies Like?
Multiple days, multiple events. Here’s how it went down.
Haldi happened on Day 2 and was apparently chaotic in the best way. Photos showed Rashmika in a yellow lehenga getting absolutely covered in turmeric by friends and family. Vijay, from what people at the venue said, was equally wrecked. It looked fun. Genuinely fun, not staged-for-cameras fun.
Sangeet was the night everyone’s been talking about. Both families performed, a couple of Bollywood friends showed up on stage, and there’s a video circulating of Vijay doing some kind of choreographed routine to a mashup of his own film songs. Is it cheesy? Absolutely. Did it work? Completely.
Main ceremony was a South Indian-style wedding blended with some North Indian rituals, which makes sense given their different backgrounds. Rashmika is Kodava and Vijay is Telugu, so the ceremony apparently incorporated traditions from both communities.

What Did They Wear?
Sabyasachi. Because of course.
Rashmika wore a traditional red and gold Sabyasachi lehenga for the main ceremony that was very classic and very her. No over-the-top experimentation. Just clean, timeless, heavy-embroidery bridal wear. She also wore statement uncut diamond jewellery that, from what I could see in photos, complemented the outfit without competing with it.
Vijay went with a cream and gold sherwani, also Sabyasachi, paired with a safa (turban) that had subtle embroidery matching Rashmika’s lehenga. The coordination was there without being matchy-matchy.
For the sangeet, Rashmika switched to a lighter pastel pink outfit, and Vijay wore all black. The contrast in those photos is kind of stunning, actually.

Who Was on the Guest List?
This is where it gets interesting. The VIROSH wedding guest list was a mix of film industries.
From the Telugu side: Allu Arjun, Ram Charan, and several other major Tollywood names were spotted arriving. From Bollywood: Ananya Panday (reportedly close to Rashmika), Janhvi Kapoor, and a few producers.
The biggest surprise guest? Apparently Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma made an appearance for the reception. That crossover of cricket and cinema at a wedding is peak Indian celebrity culture and I’m not even mad about it.
Close friends and family made up the core guest list, with the bigger celebrity arrivals coming mostly for the reception rather than the intimate ceremonies.
The Cricket Match Nobody Expected
This is my favourite detail. On Day 3, between the sangeet and the main ceremony, Vijay organized a casual cricket match on the property grounds. Guests split into two teams, and by all accounts it was competitive in a very unserious way.
There’s a photo of Vijay batting in what appears to be kurta pajamas, and Allu Arjun fielding in formal shoes. Bonkers energy. The kind of thing that makes a wedding memorable beyond the outfits and decor.

How Social Media Reacted
The hashtag #VIROSHWedding trended for about 48 hours straight across Twitter and Instagram. At its peak, it was the number one trend in India and top five globally on Twitter.
Fan edits, memes, and compilation videos flooded every platform. Rashmika’s bridal entry video alone got over 20 million views in 24 hours. And I think the thing people responded to most was how genuinely happy both of them looked. No stiffness, no “performing for the cameras” energy. Just two people enjoying their day.

Final Thoughts
The VIROSH wedding wasn’t just a celebrity event. It was a masterclass in how two massive stars can celebrate their relationship with both scale and intimacy. Udaipur as a venue, the blend of Telugu and Kannada traditions, the guest list that read like a film industry directory. Every detail felt intentional. I think what resonated most with fans wasn’t the grandeur but the genuine affection between Vijay and Rashmika that came through in every photo and video. Congratulations to the couple.
