So, how did the rumours begin?

Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda first worked together in the 2018 film Geetha Govindam, directed by Parasuram. The movie was a commercial success, and their sizzling chemistry on-screen left many fans wondering if there was something more to their relationship.

In early 2019, rumours of Rashmika and Vijay dating began to surface. The speculations gained momentum when the two were spotted together on several occasions, including parties and award shows. However, both the actors maintained that they were just good friends and that there was nothing more to their relationship.

Vijay opens up about his relationship with Rashmika

During an episode on Koffee With Karan, Vijay was asked about Rashmika and their relationship together. Responding to the same, he said, “We’ve done two films together in the early years of my career. She’s a darling and I’m really fond of her. She’s a really good friend.”

He further stated, “Generally, in films, I think you are put in such close proximity very quickly that your bonds develop much quicker. Normally, to sit and look at a girl in the eye and talk to her it would take me a while. But suddenly a director is putting me next to her and asking me to do a montage where I’m touching her cheek and brushing her hair. Suddenly, lots of ice is broken.”

While fans continue to believe that the two are more than just friends, the actors have time and again denied any such rumours.
