Recent Public Appearances with Vijay Deverakonda
In the days leading up to her birthday, Rashmika Mandanna was spotted enjoying a lunch date with fellow actor Vijay Deverakonda in Mumbai. This outing has reignited speculations about their relationship, especially since rumors have linked them since their collaboration in the film "Geetha Govindam." While Rashmika warmly greeted the paparazzi and posed for photos with fans, Vijay opted for a more discreet entrance through the back of the restaurant. Despite frequent public appearances together, neither has confirmed the nature of their relationship.
Professional Endeavors and the Release of 'Sikandar'
On the professional front, Rashmika recently appeared in the action thriller "Sikandar," directed by AR Murugadoss and co-starring Salman Khan. Released on March 30, 2025, the film opened to mixed reviews and faced challenges at the box office. Reports indicate a significant drop in collections after the initial release, with earnings of approximately ₹19 crore on the third day. Additionally, the film encountered piracy issues shortly after its release, which may have further impacted its performance.
Despite these professional challenges, Rashmika's upcoming birthday serves as a personal highlight, marking another year of health and happiness for the actress.
