Vijay Devarakonda on Family Star releasing on Rashmika Mandanna’s birthday

The much-awaited family entertainer “Family Star,” starring Vijay Deverakonda and Mrinal Thakur, is gearing up for its release on April 5th. Directed by Parusuram, the film has been generating significant buzz, thanks to its engaging trailer and popular songs.

As part of the film’s promotions, Vijay Deverakonda recently participated in a fun “kitty party” chat with senior actresses. During this interaction, he was asked about the significance of the film’s release date, April 5th, which also happens to be actress Rashmika Mandanna’s birthday.

While Vijay initially mentioned the holiday season as the reason for choosing this date, he later acknowledged the coincidence with Rashmika’s birthday, adding with a smile, “Yes, it’s Rashmika’s birthday. I think it will be lucky for us.”

This playful response has further fueled existing rumors about a possible romantic relationship between Vijay and Rashmika. Although the two actors have remained tight-lipped about their personal lives, their off-screen camaraderie and subtle hints have kept the rumor mills churning.

Adding to the excitement, there are whispers that Rashmika might make a special appearance in “Family Star,” possibly featuring in the wedding song “Kalyani Valla.. Valla.” However, the film team has kept this information under wraps, and Rashmika was notably absent from the song’s lyrical video.

“Family Star” marks the second collaboration between Vijay Deverakonda and director Parusuram, following their successful venture “Geetha Govindam.” With its impressive trailer, popular songs, and aggressive promotions, the film has created high expectations among audiences.

The music for “Family Star” has been composed by Gopisunder, and the three songs released so far have been well-received. Produced by Dilraju and Shirish under the banner of Srivenkateswara Creations, the film is expected to benefit from its release date, just four days before the Ugadi festival. Expectations are increasing on Family Star as Vijay Devarakonda and Parasuram earlier scored a blockbuster with the film Geetha Govindam.
