India’s “National Crush” Rashmika Mandanna officially entered her 30s on April 5, 2026, marking the milestone with a deeply personal and nostalgic trip to her hometown. This birthday carried extra significance as it was her first since marrying actor Vijay Deverakonda in a high-profile ceremony earlier this year.
Rather than opting for a glitzy industry bash in Mumbai or Hyderabad, the couple chose the serene landscapes of Coorg (Kodagu) to celebrate with close family and childhood friends.
The pushpa star, who has become one of the highest-earning actresses in the post-pandemic era, took a break from her busy filming schedule to revisit her childhood. Accompanied by Vijay, Rashmika spent the day visiting the Padi Sri Igguthappa Temple, where she has sought blessings since she was a child.
In a touch of local tradition, Rashmika was seen in a simple yet elegant saree, while Vijay matched the traditional vibe in a classic white ensemble. The couple also took a sentimental drive past Rashmika’s old school, though the actress noted on social media that time constraints kept them from going inside.
The evening was marked by a private dinner gathering. This event served a dual purpose: celebrating Rashmika’s 30th and allowing the couple to catch up with extended family members who were unable to attend their February wedding in Udaipur.
Rashmika shared glimpses of the intimate party on Instagram, including a video of her dancing joyfully while cutting her birthday cake. In a heartfelt caption, she reflected on the importance of the day, mentioning how special it felt to return home after so long and cut the cake with the people who have been there since the beginning.
Vijay Deverakonda, who has recently been more open about their relationship following their marriage, shared a heartwarming message for his wife. During a local reception in Coorg held around the same time, Vijay charmed the locals by attempting to speak in the Kodava language, expressing his growing fondness for the region and its culture. He reportedly mentioned his desire to see more of where Rashmika grew up, calling Coorg a beautiful place.
As Rashmika turns 30, her career is at an all-time high. With an estimated net worth of approximately ₹66 crore, she continues to dominate both South Indian and Bollywood cinema. Fans are particularly excited for her upcoming project *Ranabaali*, which marks her first on-screen collaboration with Vijay since their iconic roles in Geetha Govindam and.
The celebration concluded with a Kodagu reception, where the couple was seen holding hands and greeting locals, solidifying their status as one of Indian cinema’s most beloved power couples. For Rashmika, the day was a reminder that despite her pan-India stardom, she remains a child of the soil. To know such latest latest updates tuned tellyboosters.com Thank you!
