Newlyweds Vijay Deverakonda- Rashmika Mandanna attend Allu Sirish's Pelli Koduku ceremony
Mumbai, March 1
Tollywood heartthrob Allu Arjun's younger brother, Allu Sirish, is all set to marry his fiancée Nayanika Reddy on March 6. Before the big day, the pre-wedding festivities are underway at the Allu house in full swing.
On Sunday, Allu Sirish used social media to share glimpses from the Pelli Koduku ceremony held in the presence of family members and close friends.
Joining in the celebration, newlyweds Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda attended the event and blessed the groom-to-be.
For the unaware, Pelli Koduku is a ritual prominent in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. It is similar to the Haldi ceremony, where turmeric paste is applied to the groom and bride for purification before the big day.
Along with Rashmika and Vijay, Allu Arjun, his wife Sneha Reddy, Ram Charan, and his better half Upasana Konidela were also present at the festivities.
Before the Pelli Koduku ceremony, the wedding function officially began with the Pasupu ceremony, which took place at Allu Sirish's residence in Hyderabad with family and close friends in attendance.
Recently, Allu Sirish announced that they will be hosting a lavish pre-wedding bash for the members of the Telugu film industry on March 2nd at the prestigious Allu Studios.
Announcing the wedding plans on social media, he wrote on his X (Earlier known as Twitter) handle, "Nayanika & I are having an intimate wedding with family & friends on 6th March. But we're excited to celebrate our Pre-Wedding Reception with the Telugu film industry prestigiously at Allu Studios on the 2nd March."
Shifting our focus to Rashmika and Vijay, following their fairytale Udaipur wedding on February 26, the lovebirds will be hosting a grand wedding reception in Hyderabad on March 4, which is expected to be graced by some prominent personalities from the industry.

It's heartwarming to see the big stars of Telugu cinema coming together for family functions. Shows the strong bond beyond the screen. All the best to Sirish and Nayanika! The pre-wedding bash at Allu Studios sounds like it will be a star-studded night.
While I enjoy seeing the glamour, sometimes I feel the coverage of these celebrity weddings overshadows more important news. That said, the rituals are beautiful. Good to see an article explaining Pelli Koduku for those unfamiliar with Telugu traditions.
The photos are gorgeous! Rashmika and Vijay look so happy, and it's sweet they attended right after their own wedding. Indian wedding seasons are truly the best – so much color, tradition, and celebration. Congratulations to the soon-to-be-married couple!
Allu Arjun, Ram Charan, Vijay Deverakonda... what a gathering! This is like a who's who of Tollywood. The industry family vibe is strong. Best wishes to Sirish garu. March is definitely the month for celebrity weddings in Hyderabad!
