Rashmika Mandanna has once again become the centre of conversation as reports of her engagement and an early 2026 wedding with actor Vijay Deverakonda continue to make headlines. While neither Rashmika nor Vijay has officially confirmed the rumours, the actor recently spoke about her idea of love and what she expects from her future partner, adding more curiosity to the ongoing buzz.
Speaking during a campus conversation with Honest Townhall, Rashmika described the qualities she values most in a relationship. She explained that emotional depth and mutual understanding matter more to her than anything else. “My type is someone who is capable of understanding at a deep level,” she said.
She added that she wants someone who looks at life thoughtfully, responds with maturity, and stands by her no matter what. “Someone who is genuinely nice and someone who can fight a war with me or for me. If there is a war against me tomorrow, I know that man will fight with me. I will take a bullet for him any day,” she expressed.
During a playful segment where she was asked who she would kill, marry, or date among the actors she has worked with, Rashmika jokingly said she would date anime character Naruto and would marry Vijay Deverakonda. Her answer prompted loud cheers from the audience, once again fueling excitement among fans of the rumored couple.
