The Celebrations, Day by Day
The festivities began warmly on February 23 with a luncheon and dinner for close friends and family. Vijay even squeezed in a spirited game of water volleyball with his groomsmen — proof that this couple knows how to balance tradition with a good time.
Today is where the real magic starts. The Mehendi ceremony is being held in an intimate daytime setting, with reports confirming that several performing artists have been flown in to keep the energy alive. This isn’t going to be a quiet, sit-down affair — it’s going to be a celebration.
By evening, the Sangeet takes over, giving both families one final chance to let their hair down before the wedding day. Think dancing, laughter, and probably a few emotional moments snuck in between the songs.
February 25 brings the Haldi ceremony, reportedly set in a spectacular outdoor section of ITC Mementos — the kind of golden-hour backdrop that looks straight out of a film set. Fitting, really, for two of Indian cinema’s biggest stars.
The Mehendi tradition, which traces its roots back centuries across South Asian wedding culture, holds a special significance — the deeper the color, the stronger the love. Rashmika’s fans are already hoping for a very, very deep shade.
The Love Story Behind the Wedding
Rashmika and Vijay first shared the screen in Geetha Govindam (2018) and again in Dear Comrade (2019) — and somewhere between those sets and the years of quiet dating rumours, something real blossomed. Now, on February 26, the whole country gets to celebrate it.
