Rashmika Weds Vijay: Rakshit Shetty Focuses on 'Richard Anthony'

Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda exchanged vows on February 26, 2026, in a ceremony held in Udaipur. The actress's marriage has brought renewed public interest to her former fiancé, Rakshit Shetty. Their engagement was mutually called off in September 2018, reportedly due to compatibility challenges and diverging career aspirations.

Rakshit Shetty, a prominent figure in the Kannada film industry, is presently concentrating on his filmmaking and acting career. While maintaining a private life, recent updates from February 2026 confirm he has moved on from past relationships and is actively engaged with his work. His friend Pramod Shetty shared that Rakshit is deeply involved in writing and preparing for his upcoming film projects.

Rakshit's directorial venture, 'Richard Anthony,' is his current primary focus. The script is finalized, and the team is slated to enter pre-production by the end of March 2026, with shooting planned for the coming months. Rakshit has described the film as a significant undertaking requiring international standards. He has also reportedly finalized four additional scripts for future endeavors, indicating a very productive period for the actor-filmmaker.
