The man who's never stopped me from dancing like no one's watching..the man who showed me travelling with friends is the best thing ever, and trust me I could write a book on this man! (sic)"
Rashmika revealed that Vijay has a significant role in shaping the woman she has become today.
"I've become the woman I have always dreamt of being, because you made her who she is today! I've truly been blessed! Vijju I am always short of words to describe the feelings I have for you!! I've always told you that!! But you know suddenly all of my achievements, struggles, happiness, sadness, joy, life - everything just makes a lot more sense now - it is because I have you - witnessing it all.. being the biggest part of it all!", she went on to add.

Vijay and Rashmika had earlier shared screen space in Geetha Govindam and Dear Comrade. Their on-screen pairing in both films was well received, and over the years, they were often linked together off screen as well. However, the actors largely remained private about their relationship.
With the wedding pictures now out, the couple has formally confirmed their marriage.
The actor took to Instagram, and shared a series of pictures and videos from the wedding festivities featuring himself and his wife.
He also penned a long note in the caption, as he wrote, "One day, I missed her. Missed her in a way that made me feel like my day would've been better if she were around. Like my meals would've felt more wholesome if she were sitting across from me. Like my workouts would've been more fun and less of a punishment if she were doing them with me. Like I needed her, just to feel that sense of home and calm, no matter where I was. So, I made my best friend, my wife".
After the wedding the families of the couples distributed sweets to the media personnel stationed outside the venue. It was on February 22, when the couple finally announced their wedding to their fans on social media. They revealed that their wedding will officially be known as "The Wedding of VIROSH."
Earlier, the pre-wedding celebrations of the couple featured a Haldi ceremony for the guests. Vijay took to the Stories section of his Instagram, and gave fans a glimpse of the intimate setup, and the visuals blend tradition and personal charm.
