In a heartwarming gesture, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has extended his congratulations and blessings to actors Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda ahead of their wedding on February 26, 2026, in Udaipur, Rajasthan. The couple, fondly called “VIROSH” by fans, received a personal letter from the PM addressed to Vijay’s parents, Shri Goverdhan Rao Deverakonda and Smt. Madhavi Deverakonda, in response to their formal invitation.
In the note dated February 24, 2026 and shared publicly on February 25, PM Modi conveyed greetings to both families, writing: “Heartiest congratulations and greetings to the Deverakonda and Mandanna families on this truly joyous and auspicious occasion.”
A Private Yet Magical Celebration
The ceremony in Udaipur is expected to be intimate and family-focused, with celebrations already underway from February 24. Multiple reports place the main wedding events at ITC Mementos / Mementos by ITC Hotels (Ekaaya), near Udaipur, where pre-wedding functions like mehendi, haldi and sangeet have been held.
The wedding follows years of fan speculation sparked by their chemistry in films like Geetha Govindam (2018) and Dear Comrade (2019), with social media continuing to track every new update around the festivities.
Fan and Industry Reactions
The PM’s message has amplified the excitement online, with fans celebrating the moment as a major “VIROSH” milestone. Neither Rashmika nor Vijay has issued a detailed public comment on the letter so far, keeping the focus on the wedding rituals and family celebrations.
As the couple prepares to exchange vows on February 26, PM Modi’s warm note adds a special layer of national goodwill to what is shaping up to be one of 2026’s most talked-about celebrity weddings.
