New Delhi: Speculation surrounding the relationship between Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda has been rampant for a while now. Despite neither confirming nor denying their romance, a recent Instagram post by Rashmika has reignited the gossip mill. In celebration of Women's Day, Rashmika shared a charming photo of herself clad in a blue sweater and black pyjamas. However, what caught the attention of fans was her choice of headwear – none other than Vijay Deverakonda's distinct pink woollen cap. Keen observers noted that Vijay had sported the same cap in a video he posted on Instagram back in December 2023 while exploring the streets of New York.
In her recent Women's Day post, Rashmika conveyed warm wishes to all women. While fans flooded the comments section with admiration for the actress's empowering message, their attention was diverted to the cute pink beanie, reminiscent of Vijay's attire.
This latest development has only fueled further speculation regarding their relationship. Fans have been buzzing with anticipation, especially following the duo's recent getaway to the Maldives.
Earlier, Vijay quashed engagement or marriage rumours, asserting, "I’m not getting engaged or married in February. It feels like the press just wants to get me married every two years. I hear this rumour every year."
Having previously shared the screen in 'Geetha Govindam' (2018) and 'Dear Comrade' (2019), Rashmika and Vijay have captivated audiences with their on-screen chemistry. Yet, they have remained tight-lipped about the status of their off-screen relationship. Whether they are simply close friends or something more remains a mystery, with only time holding the answers.
