Rashmika and Vijay’s dating history
Rashmika and Vijay have been rumoured to be dating since their first on-screen pairing in the 2018 hit Geetha Govindam, followed by Dear Comrade in 2019.
Over the years, they have often been spotted together at events and vacations. In August, the duo led the 43rd India Day Parade in New York and also attended the Bharat Beyond Borders event. Fans have long speculated about their relationship, especially after noticing that both stars frequently post photos from the same holiday destinations.
In 2024, both actors admitted they were not single but refrained from naming their partners. The pair were recently spotted leaving an airport together, fuelling speculation that they are ready to go public with their relationship.
On the work front
Rashmika was last seen in Kuberaa alongside Dhanush and Nagarjuna . She will next appear in Maddock Films’ horror-comedy Thamma, co-starring Ayushmann Khurrana, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, and Paresh Rawal, slated for a Diwali 2025 release. She also stars in Cocktail 2 with Kriti Sanon and Shahid Kapoor, as well as The Girlfriend and Mysaa.
Vijay was most recently seen in Kingdom, co-starring Satyadev and Bhagyashree Borse, directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri and produced by Naga Vamsi and Sai Soujanya under Sithara Entertainments and Fortune Four Cinemas.
