Actress Rashmika Mandanna invited Union Home Minister Amit Shah personally to her wedding party with Vijay Deverakonda in a beautiful act of respect and tradition. The invitation was sent in a one-to-one meeting in Mumbai on 27 February, 2026, just after the couple had an intimate temple wedding in Udaipur on 26 February.

Amit Shah, wearing the modest and graceful cream saree with her, Rashmika met him at home and wished him a gift of a beautifully made silver Ganesh idol as a wedding gift. It is the idol, which symbolizes wisdom, prosperity, and the remover of obstacles, that caused its selection to bring blessings to the future of the newlyweds. Amit Shah took the gift smilingly, congratulated the couple, and promised Rashmika that he would make an attempt to attend the grand party that was scheduled in Mumbai in the forthcoming weeks.

It was also photographed and published by the team of Rashmika, and soon it became viral, with fans applauding her humility and cultural sensitivity. How sweet a thing the National Crush has done! A request to Home Minister Ji and a gift to Lord Ganesha reflect the real Indian values, and this is what one user wrote.

It will be followed by receptions in Hyderabad and Bengaluru and the reception will consist of industry bigwigs, politicians, and intimate friends of both Telugu and Hindi cinema. The guest list has been limited in a selective but not insignificant way, as Rashmika and Vijay got married in an official ceremony that merged both Telugu and Kannada religions.

The fact that Amit Shah might attend is a particularly successful crossover into the political-celebrity category, with Amit Shah having a long-standing relationship with a number of South Indian stars and the trends that have led to the increased interconnection between Bollywood/Sandalwood and national politics.

The invitation and gift sent by Rashmika were described as classy and respectful as the netizens flooded the social media with heart emojis and blessings towards the couple. This act of kindness has continued to enhance the popularity of one of the most hyped weddings in 2026 as preparations towards the receptions continue to grow.
