Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda Wedding: The story behind their Ram-Sita picture; photographer reveals

Ever since the wedding pictures of Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda surfaced, social media has been buzzing, with netizens praising the images and the couple’s effortless chemistry.The photographer behind the now-viral frames, Siddharth Sharma, Founder and Director of House On The Clouds shared insights into capturing the couple’s big day. “When you’re working with two people who share such easy comfort, your job is to create an environment where their chemistry can breathe. We kept the crew minimal, the directions soft, and allowed their rhythm to lead the frame,” he said.Addressing the image that sparked mythological comparisons online, Sharma clarified that the symbolism was never staged.

“We were responding to a moment that felt quietly powerful — the two of them walking away after completing their rituals and receiving blessings. That kind of frame carries a sense of calm strength and companionship. Our intent was simply to honour a moment that felt timeless in its own way.”While the internet continues to debate symbolism and aesthetics, the couple’s personal favourite is far simpler. The first photo they posted remains closest to their hearts — and, as Sharma puts it, “It’s needless to say why.”

The stars tied the knot on February 26 in an intimate destination wedding in Udaipur, blending traditional Telugu and Kodava (Coorg) customs in ceremonies attended by close family and friends. Known for their celebrated on-screen chemistry in Geetha Govindam and Dear Comrade, their real-life union also made headlines for the artistry of their wedding jewellery.Rashmika’s shimmering temple jewellery and Vijay’s ceremonial gold accents quickly became talking points, with many saying the duo redefined contemporary bridal and groom styling with a touch of tradition.
