Tollywood’s biggest power couple, Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna, are proving they can prioritize professional issues even as wedding bells ring just days away. Reports have come out recently stating that the couple, who are scheduled to get married on February 26, 2026, recently left behind their busy wedding jitters to shoot a splashy ad together.
The couple was seen in Mumbai earlier this week, fuelling gossip that they were finalizing a professional project before going to Rajasthan. Industry insiders say that the following is how they saw it:
- The Project: A commercial for a premium lifestyle brand they have been associated with independently in the past.
- The Vibe: The chemistry the two shares was said to be effortless and glowing among backstage sources, who told reporters that they exuded the same real-life exuberance on a huge scale.
- Professionalism: The stars reportedly finished the shoot in one day in a marathon session despite the pressure of planning a destination wedding to ensure there were no delays in their wedding itinerary, according to sources.
Wedding Countdown: Udaipur Schedule
The commercial shoot is the couple's last ever public professional appearance before they transition into "wedding mode." The date and the duration of the celebrations is now fixed:
- February 24: Pre-wedding festivities (Haldi & Mehendi) begin at a luxury heritage property in the Aravalli range, outskirts of Udaipur.
- February 25: A private Sangeet ceremony with close family.
- February 26: The main wedding ceremony with high-security, international supervision.
A Month-Long Sabbatical
Vijay and Rashmika both reportedly have a month-long break planned into their new chapter to ensure they make the most of it, based on the grand reception they will have on March 4 at Taj Krishna in Hyderabad.
Rashmika has adjusted her schedule to make room for the upcoming work on movies such as Cocktail 2 and Mysaa. Vijay cleared his calendar after wrapping up his part in Rowdy Janardhana. A professional “wrap-up” of the recent ad shoot suggests the couple is now prepared to just focus on their big day.
