Vijay Deverakonda opens up about love… Confirmed with Rashmika?

For the past few years, rumors of an affair between actor Vijay Deverakonda and actress Rashmika Mandanna have been circulating widely on social media. Recently, the two were seen at the Mumbai airport one after the other, and later, they were both spotted in the Maldives—though separately. These sightings have led many to believe that the two are dating. Despite their repeated clarifications, Vijay and Rashmika both deny any relationship beyond friendship. Still, such rumors persist.

At one point, both Vijay and Rashmika posted separate photos on social media, taken in what seemed like the same house. Observant fans noticed that both photos had the same background wall, which led to speculation that they were in the same home. Rashmika recently returned to Hyderabad for her assistant’s wedding, and after attending the wedding, reports suggest she may have visited Vijay’s residence. When Rashmika shared a photo that appeared to be taken at Vijay’s house, social media users were quick to assume she was indeed staying with him.

Recently, Vijay made a few comments about love that drew attention: “Love happens naturally, guys. If you’re still young, give it some time. Men need to mature first, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Just give it time. Men over 30 tend to think more maturely about love compared to those in their 20s. From my personal experience, in your 20s, you’re still figuring things out. Don’t rush things, let them happen naturally.”

Many fans believe that Vijay’s statements about love hint at his relationship with Rashmika. His video quickly went viral, sparking further discussion online.
