Rashmika and Vijay’s Understated Airport Exit Sparks Buzz

Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda were seen leaving Mumbai airport in the same car, and fans are losing it. So, are they about to come out? Here’s what we know. Rashmika and Vijay: Are the romance rumours heating up with this recent sighting?

Among Tollywood’s on-screen couples, there has never really been a couple that has grabbed the attention of the masses like Rashmika and Vijay. After much anticipation, when their on-screen chemistry finally took off, diehard fans were convinced that they were about to catch fire in real life too, or at least be exposed to the rumours, and their latest public sighting perhaps lends merit to that idea.

The two were seen just recently walking into the Mumbai airport; they were seen taking a car together, with fans chomping at the bit regarding their purported romantic relationship. Neither of them has confirmed any romantic situation, yet fans (as diehard fans usually do) make the connections, and this recent public sighting certainly adds intrigue.

An Understated Exit by Rashmika and Vijay From the Airport That Said a Lot

Early Wednesday morning, sharp-eyed paparazzi spotted Rashmika and Vijay quietly leaving Mumbai airport. What drew everyone’s attention? They did not merely exit the airport covered minutes apart—they got into the same car and drove off together. 

Modestly, both stars tried to keep their anonymity, pulling their face masks over their face substantially and doing their best to evade the clicking cameras. Yet, in the social media age, nothing is genuinely hidden. Minutes later, pictures of the two stars sitting next to each other in the back of the car were on the internet, and fans started tweeting and re-tweeting like crazy.  

Comments like “Are they dating for real?” and “When’s the wedding?” flooded fan pages. Another user said, “They look so good together, just make it official already!” Their fans are ready for them to transition from friends in ludicrous films to dating.

A Timeline of Their Alleged Relationship

The speculation surrounding Rashmika and Vijay has been around for some time and dates back to 2018 when the two shared the screen in Geetha Govindam and the intense Dear Comrade in 2019. By all stretches of the imagination, their on-screen chemistry was electric, and fans immediately began shipping them off-screen. 

The two have been spotted over the years vacationing at similar locations (usually separate photos from the same backdrop), attending family events together and celebrating special occasions, including birthdays, with each other. Rashmika has been seen at Vijay’s house often and even watched Pushpa 2: The Rule with his family last year in a private theatre.

Both actors have been careful to protect their private lives too, but there has been enough discreet social media activity to keep the flame alive. Last year, both admitted to being in a relationship, but neither mentioned their significant other. Fans put two and two together.

Career Lives: Busy, but Together? Both Rashmika and Vijay are mostly in the media headlines for their personal lives, but their careers are on fire, too. 

Rashmika will be appearing soon in Kuberaa, a highly anticipated film directed by Sekhar Kammula starring Dhanush and Nagarjuna, set to premiere on June 20. In addition, she has two films called Thama and The Girlfriend forthcoming. 

Vijay Deverakonda will be seen next in the upcoming Telugu spy thriller Kingdom, directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri, starring Bhagyashri Borse and Satyadev, which is set to release on July 4. Kingdom is said to be the first part of an action-filled duology. 

While both have their career commitments, it’s interesting to note that they still find time to be around each other, whether at birthday celebrations, family functions or airport pickups.

Fans Are Emotionally Engaged

Celebrity couples have scarce organic fan support relative to Rashmika and Vijay. Their suspected romance has developed organically over the years, without contrived PR moments, and by neglecting fabricated appearances. 

This is part of the allure; you feel the authenticity, the relatability, and it is utterly heartfelt to many fans. With each public moment, people become increasingly curious while parsing all of the clues from their outfits, the background, and every word in their captions. 

There are now groups of fans actively hoping for a couple to occur. There are even fans hoping for a Tollywood-type fairytale wedding with some cross-industry buzz.

It’s Private, But Not Hiding

In a world where (too) many celebrity couples leave nothing to the imagination by broadcasting their relationships across multiple social media platforms, the subtlety of Rashmika and Vijay feels almost refreshing. They haven’t been hiding their relationship — but they also haven’t been holding up signs and shouting it from the rooftops. This is the perfect balance where they are keeping fans guessing, but not turning their relationship into tabloid fodder. 

And truthfully, with as interconnected as we are in our world, it is no easy feat to keep a relationship under wraps. So the fact that they are managing to do this, while still giving fans a little taste to keep hope alive. I would say that is a clear example of how to navigate fame with class.

Final Word – A Confirmation Coming Soon?

So, back to the point, are Rashmika and Vijay dating? If we look at more than just public sightings, their families’ ties, and how, over the past years, they have spent time and shared moments together many times, we may already have the answer. Just unuttered. 

Whether it is made public or not is not the point, but every public sighting is creating a buzz among fans. The truth is, it is already a point of interest for their fans, and anytime they appear publicly now, it is in its own right a “thing.” Well, for now, we will keep our eyes on these two and anxiously wait to see which will lead to the realisation that love is in the air.
