Why Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda faced trolling

The controversy began after the couple spoke about how their decision to marry came about during their appearance on Koffee With Karan. Vijay recalled that when Rashmika first suggested marriage, he jokingly told her to ask him 100 times. Mandanna said she continued asking him every day for an entire year before he agreed. The revelation prompted criticism on social media. Some users questioned why Deverakonda had shared the story publicly, while others interpreted the exchange as suggesting that Mandanna was more invested in the relationship.

By speaking out, Rashmika Mandanna has asked audiences to look beyond a viral moment and respect the choices two adults have made together. Her closing message was not that everyone must understand their relationship, but that they do not need to approve of it for the couple to be happy. For Rashmika, the answer to the criticism remains simple: she chose Vijay, and she says she would make that choice again.
