Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda have entered a new chapter in their relationship, getting married in an intimate ceremony at ITC Mementos, Udaipur, on February 26.


The couple, who first shared screen space in the Telugu films Geetha Govindam and Dear Comrade, solemnised their union in the morning as per traditional Telugu rituals. A second ceremony was later held to honour Rashmika Mandanna’s Kodava heritage, making it a celebration of both families’ cultural roots.

Known for keeping their relationship largely private over the years, the actors opted for a strictly no-phone wedding, ensuring an unplugged and intimate atmosphere for close friends and family. Guests were required to deposit their phones at the entrance, reinforcing the couple’s desire for privacy.

For the Telugu ceremony, the bride and groom wore ensembles designed by Anamika Khanna. Official wedding photographs shared on social media quickly went viral, with fans and celebrities flooding the comments section with congratulatory messages.

Reports suggest that the wedding festivities included a haldi ceremony with a splash of colours, a lively sangeet night featuring dance performances, and carefully curated hospitality for guests — and even sweets sent out to paparazzi stationed outside the venue.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi extended his congratulations to the couple, while several film industry colleagues including Samantha, Kriti Sanon and Sandeep Reddy Vanga shared their wishes.

From on-screen romance to a real-life partnership, Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda’s journey has captured public imagination for years. With their wedding now official, fans are celebrating what many have called one of the most anticipated celebrity unions in recent times.

Mira Kapoor’s Romantic Birthday Wish for Shahid Kapoor Wins Hearts

Tanisha Cardozo

Love stories in Bollywood often play out on-screen, but sometimes, the most genuine moments unfold away from the camera. That’s exactly what fans witnessed when Mira Rajput Kapoor shared a heartfelt birthday tribute to her husband, Shahid Kapoor, on February 25.

Taking to social media, Mira posted a series of intimate and romantic pictures, accompanied by a simple yet deeply personal message: “Simply the best… Happy Birthday love of my life.” The post quickly resonated with fans, offering a glimpse into the couple’s bond that has remained strong over the years.

The images captured a serene beachside setting, where the couple appeared relaxed and completely at ease in each other’s company. In one frame, Shahid, dressed casually in a black T-shirt and sunglasses, wraps his arms around Mira as they gaze out at the sea, soaking in the calm of the moment. Another candid shot shows them laughing freely, with Mira leaning back into his embrace.

Perhaps the most touching image in the series is one where Mira plants a gentle kiss on Shahid’s forehead, while he smiles warmly at the camera. The final photograph adds a playful touch, with Shahid lifting Mira as she hugs him tightly—an effortless display of affection and comfort.

Their story dates back to July 7, 2015, when they tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in Delhi. Unlike many celebrity relationships, theirs was an arranged match, brought together through family connections and spiritual guidance. Over the years, their relationship has evolved into one of Bollywood’s most admired partnerships.

Today, more than a decade into their marriage, the couple are proud parents to two children—daughter Misha, born in 2016, and son Zain, born in 2018. While Shahid continues to shine in the film industry, Mira has carved her own identity as an entrepreneur, building a strong presence in the wellness and lifestyle space.

On the professional front, Shahid Kapoor remains as busy as ever. After his recent appearance in O Romeo, he has an exciting lineup ahead with Cocktail 2 and Farzi 2, keeping fans eagerly anticipating his next performances.

Born into a family deeply rooted in cinema, Shahid is the son of veteran actors Pankaj Kapur and Neelima Azeem, and shares a close bond with his half-brother, actor Ishaan Khatter.

Yet, beyond the film sets and public appearances, it is moments like these—quiet, affectionate, and deeply personal—that truly define his life. Mira’s birthday post serves as a reminder that even in the spotlight, love can remain simple, grounded, and beautifully real.

SC Refuses Ban on Yadav Ji Ki Love Story, Says Title Not Defamatory

Tanisha Cardozo

In a significant development highlighting the intersection of cinema and constitutional rights, the Supreme Court of India has refused to impose a ban on the film Yadav Ji Ki Love Story, dismissing a petition that challenged its title. The plea, filed by the chief of the Vishwa Yadav Parishad, argued that the film’s name portrayed the Yadav community in a negative light and sought either a ban or a change in the title.

Hearing the matter, a bench comprising Justices BV Nagarathna and Ujjal Bhuyan examined the arguments and the material presented before them. The court ultimately found the concerns to be unfounded, stating that the title of the film did not contain any language or implication that could be seen as derogatory towards the Yadav community.

Justice Nagarathna observed that the court could not understand how the title alone could reflect negatively on an entire community, especially when it lacked any explicit or implied negative descriptors. The bench emphasised that none of the reasonable restrictions outlined under Article 19(2) of the Constitution—which governs limitations on freedom of speech and expression—were applicable in this case.

The court also drew a distinction between this matter and a previous controversy surrounding the film Ghooskhor Pandat. In that instance, the word “ghooskhor,” meaning corrupt, was deemed to carry a clearly negative connotation that could reflect poorly on a community, prompting judicial intervention. However, in the present case, the bench noted that no such negative association existed in the title Yadav Ji Ki Love Story.

During the proceedings, the petitioner’s counsel clarified that their objection was not to inter-community relationships depicted in the film, but rather to how certain aspects, including the portrayal of a woman, were handled. Despite these arguments, the court maintained that the film is a work of fiction and does not warrant judicial interference based on speculative concerns.

With the petition dismissed, the path is now clear for the film’s release, scheduled for February 27. The ruling reinforces the judiciary’s stance on protecting creative expression while carefully weighing claims of community harm, once again underlining the importance of context and intent in such disputes.

Her first look featured the elegant Datt Tidal Gown, inspired by sea elements.

For another appearance, Priyanka embraced modern glamour in a structured white gown featuring bold cut-outs and a thigh-high slit. The silhouette highlighted sophistication while maintaining the dramatic pirate-core theme through its fluid design and confident styling.

The outfit featured a structured top with a prominent bow neckline, paired with a completely see-through skirt that added a bold, edgy appeal. She elevated the look with a Judith Leiber Bali Parrot Clutch and Christian Louboutin Hot Chick Pumps in burnt copper tones.
With corsets, sheer silhouettes, dramatic textures, and statement accessories, Priyanka Chopra once again demonstrated how theatrical fashion storytelling can redefine celebrity style.
