Mentioning that the wedding sparked “extraordinary nationwide excitement,” the couple’s team claimed that the decision to reduce the size of the March 4 event was made after due consultation with the authorities. “Police officials have advised tighter controls to prevent large public gatherings, traffic congestion, and any potential safety risks. Ensuring the well-being of guests, the public, and the couple remains the highest priority,” said team VIROSH, a fan-coined portmanteau that blends Vijay and Rashmika’s names.

The team asserted, “Entry to the venue will be strictly limited to guests with valid invitations. Individuals without official invites are respectfully requested not to visit the venue, as access will not be permitted under any circumstances.” Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda tied the knot on Thursday, February 26.

We are deeply grateful for your blessings and support, and we request your cooperation in helping us keep this celebration safe and joyful for everyone.”
