Rashmika Mandanna, who has recently been basking in the glory of consecutive box office successes like Pushpa 2: The Rule, Chhaava, and now Sikandar with Salman Khan, took a break from her hectic schedule to unwind in Oman for her 29th birthday. While she shared serene and sun-kissed pictures from her beach vacation, fans quickly speculated that she wasn’t alone on the trip. Coincidentally, actor Vijay Deverakonda also posted photos from a similar beachy backdrop, fueling long-standing rumours about their relationship. Though the duo has never confirmed anything, their fans seem convinced that there’s more than friendship brewing.
Social media sleuths pointed out striking similarities in both stars’ vacation snaps—the same sandy beaches, matching palm-lined coastlines, and even identical blue umbrellas. Vijay was seen enjoying a horseback ride on the beach, while Rashmika had earlier shared candid shots in the same setting. This led fans to confidently assume that the pair were celebrating Rashmika’s birthday together in Oman, even if they chose to post photos separately. The internet was flooded with comments from fans expressing their joy, calling them a “power couple” and eagerly rooting for their wedding.
While Rashmika continues to dominate the silver screen with exciting upcoming projects like Thama, The Girlfriend, and Kuberaa, Vijay is all set to return to theatres with Kingdom, scheduled for release on May 30. Despite their packed calendars, the two seem to make time for quiet getaways together. Whether or not they make their relationship official, their admirers are thrilled by these subtle confirmations. One enthusiastic fan even commented, “Finally! I thought he wasn’t with her on her birthday! May Allah bless you both.” Clearly, their chemistry both on and off screen continues to keep fans invested.
