“More than a brother-in-law......": Rashmika's sister drops UNSEEN special VIROSH moments & love for Vijay

Just when fans thought they had seen it all from the dreamy #Virosh wedding, Rashmika Mandanna’s sister Shiman Mandanna added a fresh layer of emotion and nostalgia. Taking to Instagram, Shiman dropped a series of unseen pictures from the intimate celebrations, giving fans a more personal peek into the festivities. The photos capture everything from chaotic, joy-filled moments with cousins to candid glimpses of dance rehearsals and sangeet performances. There are also heartwarming frames featuring family members, a fun cricket team snapshot, and behind-the-scenes glimpses that feel less like a celebrity wedding and more like a close-knit family reunion.

“Not just my brother-in-law…” — a note that stayed with fans

What truly stood out was Shiman’s heartfelt caption. Reflecting on the whirlwind of ceremonies—from Pellikoduku to Sangeet, Haldi, Mehndi, and the wedding itself—she spoke about the laughter, exhaustion, and emotional highs that came with it all.

She admitted that even amid the chaos, there were quiet moments where emotions almost took over. From skipping school just to be present for every function to not wanting the celebrations to end, her words painted a vivid picture of what the wedding meant to her.

Her most touching line was reserved for Vijay Deverakonda. Calling him more than just a brother-in-law, Shiman wrote that he had become the brother she always wished for. It’s this raw honesty that struck a chord online, making the post instantly relatable and deeply moving.

A love story fans can’t get enough of

Shiman’s post comes shortly after Rashmika herself shared adorable snaps with her and Anand Deverakonda on the occasion of Siblings Day, keeping the wedding buzz alive weeks after the big day.

For those catching up, Vijay and Rashmika tied the knot on February 26, 2026, in a private ceremony in Udaipur. The celebrations beautifully blended cultures, featuring a traditional Telugu wedding in the morning and a Kodava-style ceremony in the evening.

On the work front, the couple is set to reunite on screen for Ranabaali, a period action drama directed by Rahul Sankrityan. Slated for release on September 11, 2026, the film will see Vijay in a rebellious role, while Rashmika steps into the character of Jayamma.

Between their real-life love story and upcoming on-screen pairing, the duo continues to keep fans fully invested, both on and off camera.
