Bathed in marigold hues and laughter, Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda’s intimate Haldi unfolded like a sunlit celebration of love and belonging. The first photographs are a celebration where the colour yellow paints the presence of family and the ease between the couple preceding scale. 

Haldi Hues Where Love Took Centre Stage

Hosted at Mememtos by ITC, Udaipur, as a part of their pre-wedding festivities, the ceremony unfolded in a setting filled with marigolds, soft daylight, and low seating arranged in a circle. There were no towering stages or a dramatic entryway. The design allowed guests to gather around the couple, blurring the distance between ritual and participation. 

In the images now circulating online, haldi is applied amid laughter, petals are tossed freely, and conversations appear to continue even as the cameras click.

Details that Reflect a Shared Life

What gives the ceremony its distinct texture is the attention to the couple’s personal world. Illustrated elements inspired by their pet dogs, Aura and Storm, found their way into the decor, drawing smiles both on and off screen.

Guests received carefully curated hampers based on the couple’s favourite snacks, a gesture that felt closer to the family function than a celebrity event. The circular seating plan also changes the mood of the ritual. It placed Rashmika and Vijay at the centre of their people rather than a display before them. 

The result is a series of photographs that feel less posed and more observed, friends leaning in with Haldi, someone caught mid-laugh, a quiet exchange between the two.

Understanding Styling, Unguarded Moments

ViRosh stayed with traditional silhouettes for the ceremony, but the styling remained light and unfussy. The focus shifts naturally to expressions, the easy familiarity, the comfort of a relationship that has grown largely away from public confirmation but never entirely out of public sight.

The balance between visibility and privacy has long defined them as a couple, and the Haldi seems to follow the same grammar. The guest list is understood to be small, the events closely managed, sharing of images selective.

Choosing Intimacy over Scale

In a time when celebrity weddings are often packaged for broadcast, reports that the couple declined exclusive streaming deals add another layer to the story. The Haldi, then, becomes more than a pre-wedding ritual. It sets the tone for a celebration that appears to value memory over moment, and presence over performance.

As February 26, 2026, finally arrives, fans say Geetha and Govind from Geetha Govindam have found their real-life “Vachindamma” moment.

They suggest a wedding that, despite the attention surrounding it, is trying to hold on to something private, the feeling of being surrounded not by an audience, but by home.
