Rashmika Mandanna, who is earning widespread praise for her performance in The Girlfriend, is once again making headlines; this time for her engagement rumours with Vijay Deverakonda.
Reports suggest that the much-loved duo got engaged in October and are set to marry in February 2026.
Amid the ongoing buzz, a clip from Rashmika’s recent interview with Honest Townhall has gone viral, where she spoke candidly about her idea of love, the kind of person she wants as a life partner, and even named the actor she would marry among her co-stars.
When asked what qualities she values most in a partner, Rashmika said, “My type is someone who understands deeply—not just in a generic way, but someone who has his own perspective on life. I want someone who is open-minded, genuinely nice, and capable of standing by me no matter what. If there’s a war against me tomorrow, I want him to fight beside me. I’d take a bullet for him too. That’s my kind of person.”
In a fun segment, when asked whom she would kill, marry, or date among her co-stars, Rashmika playfully answered that she would date the anime character Naruto and marry Vijay Deverakonda.
The crowd erupted in cheers, and the moment instantly went viral online.
While neither Rashmika nor Vijay has officially confirmed their engagement or wedding plans, reports suggest the couple is planning an intimate ceremony early next year.
Fans, however, are already celebrating their chemistry—both on and off-screen.
