According to reports, both the actors could not control their emotions and their eyes became blurry before their big moment. It turns out, "Varmala was the most emotional moment of the wedding. As Rashmika and Vijay garlanded each other, they both had tears in their eyes because it really meant everything to them. As for what the moment meant to the couple and why there were tears, the source reportedly said, “There were tears of joy, extreme happiness, and a lot of love between friends and family."
Despite remaining mostly under the radar throughout the duration of their relationship, the couple had their ‘this is it’ moment during the garland exchange, which is a true showcase of their romantic story. The couple has had a long journey together, having first met during the filming of Geetha Govindam in 2017 and then another collaboration for Dear Comrade.
Although they mostly maintained that they were just friends and kept quiet about their relationship in the early days, they eventually became more confident and started talking about dating, although never admitting who it was with. Now, their fans who have been calling them Virosh for a long time finally get to know more about their relationship through small glimpses of their wedding festivities.
