Rashmika Mandanna reveals she was nervous about her first on-screen kiss with Vijay Deverakonda in ‘Geeta Govindam’. Now both are going to get married on 26 February 2026 in Udaipur.
This is a part of an interview with actress Rashmika Mandanna. Answering the question, Rashmika said, ‘The first kiss of my career was given by me in the film ‘Geeta Govindam’. When it was said that it was necessary for the film and that I had to kiss the co-actor, it was natural for me to be confused. Later I came to know that the same had happened with co-actor Vijay also.
But, we actors have to participate in all the scenes required for the film. This is also important for our professionalism and commitment towards the film. Agreeing and acting for a scene when the story demands it is a part of acting. Directors shoot such scenes only when the story requires it. Especially, in ‘Geeta Govindam’ Vijay Deverakonda and I played the role of a married couple. Whatever a married husband and wife do, we had to do it in the film, it is natural.
First kiss in front of camera
But, if I say personally, the first kiss I did in a film, in front of the camera, was with actor Vijay Deverakonda in ‘Geeta Govindam’. I was very nervous then.. because kiss is a very personal and sensitive matter for me. So naturally I was very nervous. Especially, during the shooting of a film there are more than 200 people on the set. It is not a lie that I found it very difficult to kiss in front of all of them,’ said actress Rashmika Mandanna.
engagement and wedding
The surprising thing is that now her engagement and marriage has been fixed with the person whom Rashmika kissed for the first time on screen. Rashmika Mandanna-Vijay Deverakonda’s wedding has been fixed on 26 February 2026 in Udaipur. After giving her first on-screen kiss in ‘Geeta Govindam’, Rashmika also did a kiss scene with Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor in the film ‘Animal’. At the same time, Vijay Deverakonda also lip-locked with his co-actress in his film ‘Arjun Reddy’.
