Rashmika Mandanna steps out after hip injury with Vijay

Rashmika Mandanna has made her first public appearance since suffering a hip injury, stepping out alongside her husband, actor Vijay Deverakonda, at a high-profile engagement ceremony in Hyderabad.

The actress and Deverakonda attended the engagement of Sahil Reddy, son of politician, producer and advocate Niranjan, on Sunday, August 23. The appearance marked a welcome moment for fans, who had been concerned about Rashmika’s health following her recent revelation about an injury sustained while filming one of her upcoming projects.

For the glamorous occasion, Rashmika and Vijay opted for coordinated dark-toned outfits. The actress looked elegant in a black-and-gold anarkali suit, which she paired with a matching dupatta. Vijay complemented her look in a traditional bandhgala, giving the couple a sophisticated appearance as they arrived at the celebration.

A video from the event quickly caught the attention of fans. In the clip, Vijay can be seen holding Rashmika’s hand as the couple walked through the venue together. Rashmika appeared relaxed and cheerful, even giggling at something her husband said as they made their way through the gathering.

The public appearance comes weeks after Rashmika opened up about an injury she suffered during the filming of her upcoming movie Mysaa. The actress revealed that the tendon in her right hip had become detached while she was shooting a song for the film.

Taking to Instagram on August 3, Rashmika described the injury as her third consecutive one and admitted that she had been hoping to keep the matter private. She also reflected on the need to take better care of her body instead of pushing herself beyond her limits.

Rashmika explained that she was recovering from the injury while taking what she described as a “forced holiday.” Despite the setback, the actress has continued to remain connected with her professional commitments and upcoming projects.

Rashmika, who has established herself as one of the leading actresses in Indian cinema, is currently working on several highly anticipated films. Her role in Mysaa has generated considerable interest, particularly after the actress described the project as the most aggressive film of her career.
