Vijay Deverakonda recently opened up about several aspects of his personal life at a promotional event for Romanchakam, a film produced by Pranay Reddy, the brother of filmmaker Sandeep Reddy Vanga.

The Telugu superstar spoke out about his life and also opened up about relationships, heartbreak, drinking, and marriage. He also gave a brief update on his wife Rashmika Mandanna, who is recovering from an injury and resting at home.

Vijay Deverakonda On His Most Exciting Year

Vijay also had a very unusual answer when asked which year of his life had been the most exciting for him. 2026 was the most exciting year for him, he said, but he said that every year since he was born has featured something memorable.

Vijay was born in 1989. The experiences he had are so many (that he can’t keep count).

He said he had enjoyed life regardless of whether he had money in his pocket. Reflecting on his younger days, he also spoke about drinking and named alcoholic beverages he used to consume.

However, Vijay said he eventually gave up drinking.

‘I Fell In Love, Had A Heartbreak, Then Fell In Love Again’

And he also described his romantic journey and described the various stages of his life.

Vijay said he had fallen in love, experienced heartbreak, eventually fell in love again, and then got married.

His words made you really feel like you could see him in the mirror. And since the actor keeps details of his personal life far away from the public light, his comments were very personal, and they were part of why he’s also the only person who has the ability to tell us about his personal life.

The statement comes after his relationship with Rashmika Mandanna became one of the most closely followed celebrity relationships in the South Indian film industry.

Vijay Gives An Update On Rashmika

In the same event, Vijay was asked about Rashmika Mandanna.

Vijay replied to the question and affectionately referred to Rashmika as “your sister-in-law” and said that she was doing well.

He said Rashmika had an injury but was recovering. According to Vijay, she is home, resting comfortably and happily.

The update gave fans some reassurance about the actress's recovery.

Vijay On His Deep Friendship With Sandeep Reddy Vanga

Vijay also spoke at length about his friendship with filmmaker Sandeep Reddy Vanga, who is one of his closest friends.

The actor said that he could go to any extent for Sandeep and believes the filmmaker would do the same for him.

Vijay also joked about the formalities surrounding public events involving close friends. He said that when someone is as close as Sandeep, there is no need for formal expressions of gratitude every time they invite each other to an event.

Vijay has a friendship beyond work and public appearances.

The Arjun Reddy Connection

Vijay Deverakonda and Sandeep Reddy Vanga's friendship is important because it was so big for the actor's career.

Sandeep made his first directorial film with Arjun Reddy, with Vijay as the lead. Vijay became one of the best-known young stars in Telugu cinema.

The romantic drama attracted huge attention on release and made Vijay and Sandeep well known in the industry.

Sandeep later adapted the story into Hindi films with Kabir Singh starring Shahid Kapoor.

From a regular background to Stardom

The road of Vijay Deverakonda from a relatively ordinary family background to becoming a big Telugu movie star has been discussed by the fans and media.

His breakthrough with Arjun Reddy was a turning point in his career. He went on to appear in films like Geetha Govindam, Dear Comrade, World Famous Lover, Liger and Kushi.

Vijay has generally been guarded about his personal life. And though his professional life has been an area where he has frequently been at the front line for years, he certainly hasn’t been in the limelight.

So his recent comments attracted more attention because he openly reflected on heartbreak, drinking and marriage.

A Personal Reflection From The Actor

Vijay’s remarks were very personal for him, and his life went through a lot of stages. The actor described his life as one of memorable experiences, from being a young man and drinking alcohol, but then being heartbroken and falling in love again and finally getting married.

His comments about Rashmika also gave fans a glimpse into their life away from the cameras, while his remarks about Sandeep Reddy Vanga reiterated the long-standing friendship that began with their landmark collaboration on Arjun Reddy.

Vijay is balancing his personal life and film career, and so his frank statements have once again attracted much attention from his fans and followers.
