In their recent individual social media posts, power couple RashmikaMandanna and Vijay Deverakonda shared pictures from their mehendi ceremony. Both wore regal traditional outfits that served as major fashion inspiration, making them both look like a dream.

Rashmika and Vijay wore colour-coordinated ensembles for their mehendi ceremony.

For their pradhanam and mehendi ceremonies, both Rashmika and Vijay chose the designer label Torani to create their looks. According to the designer label, the couple wore colour-coordinated, custom ethnic silhouettes that echoed the ideas of mythology and modernity, colour and restraint, craft and celebration. Torani captured the couple’s roots, Mysore and the Deccan, in their ensembles. Rashmika’s ensemble carried the story of Lakshmi and the vibrancy of temple traditions, while Vijay’s garment echoed the quiet strength of Deccan royalty and the ease of traditional veshti dressing.

More on Rashmika’s look of the day at her mehendi.

Her mesmerising ensemble was inspired by the radiance of the South, drawing on Tanjore painting with its jewel tones, temple arches, and luminous gold. According to the Instagram page of the designer in Tanjore paintings, “Lakshmi sits within a sacred shrine surrounded by symbols of prosperity. That became our inspiration.” Her ensemble featured a bejewelled corset paired with a draped dhoti skirt and a Lakshmi odhna – a garment imagined almost like a moving shrine. With its colourful embroidery, tassel-adorned detailing, and intricate kadhai work, the lehenga look celebrates colour, devotion, and exuberance. Accessorising the look, Rashmika wore a multi-string necklace, jhumkis, vibrant bangles, rings, and a slicked-back half-up hairdo, rounded off the styling, with minimal glam. The designer said about Rashmika, “For me, this was not simply an outfit. It was a portrait of a bride, radiant, rooted, and arriving like Lakshmi herself.”

Vijay, on the other hand, honoured his Deccan heritage. The designer revealed, “Hyderabad carries a layered cultural memory. The elegance of the Nizams, the poetry of Deccan culture, and the ease of traditional dressing. Historically, men in this region wore garments like the veshti and lungi, draped with dignity yet designed for movement and life.” He wore a draped veshti, a relaxed kurta, and an embroidered jacket, allowing him to celebrate freely throughout the evening. The jacket becomes the anchor of his look, decked with tiny embroidered windows holding parrot, elephant, and peacock motifs drawn from Indian temple iconography. He even wore a kamarbandh, carrying handwork and bold embellishments and completed his look with rings, mojaris, and a statement-making massive necklace.
