In Sage and Blush, Rashmika & Vijay Serve Major Haldi Goals in Anamika Khanna

A Haldi That Felt Like a Dream: Rashmika & Vijay’s Udaipur Celebration

Some weddings are memorable, and then there are moments that feel almost cinematic. The Haldi ceremony of Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda was unmistakably the latter.

Set against the lush landscape of Mementos by ITC Hotels in Udaipur, the ceremony began as a traditional turmeric ritual but soon transformed into a vibrant, colour-soaked celebration reminiscent of Holi. As Rashmika later shared, the colours lingered long after the festivities—“even now, my hair still carries a bit of red.”

The Bride: Soft Power in Sage

For the occasion, Rashmika chose an ensemble by Anamika Khanna—a sage green one-shoulder lehenga that blended structure with fluidity. Intricate net layering and delicate floral embroidery in blush, ivory, and gold added depth, while the asymmetric drape gave it a contemporary edge.

Amid the vibrant yellows and reds of the ceremony, her muted sage palette stood out as a calm, intentional contrast.

Her jewellery leaned into maximalism: stacked gold bangles, statement earrings, and a bold maang tikka. As marigold petals fell around her, the moment felt almost painterly—timeless, soft, and striking.

The Groom: Effortless Charm in Blush

Vijay complemented her look in a blush pink embroidered kurta, also by Anamika Khanna. Detailed with subtle floral motifs in sage and ivory, the outfit balanced elegance with ease.

Paired with ivory churidars and his signature black sunglasses, he struck a look that was equal parts understated and charismatic. Minimal gold accessories completed the ensemble, letting the outfit—and his relaxed presence—shine through.

Together, the couple embodied perfect harmony: her ornate gold styling against his restrained elegance, sage against blush—a visual balance that felt both thoughtful and natural.

A Setting Straight Out of a Fairytale

The venue elevated the celebration even further. Draped in hues of yellow and peach, with towering floral installations in sunflower and coral tones, the space felt alive with colour and warmth. The highlight? The couple’s arrival and exit on a flower-adorned wooden boat gliding across a serene lake, its reflection doubling the magic.

Adding a playful note, Rashmika revealed the ceremony was as competitive as it was joyous—crediting her “Team Bride” for winning all the games, with Vijay himself quietly joining her side.
