Rashmika mimics Vijay in viral ‘Ranabaali’ BTS clip
Vijay Deverakonda shared a behind-the-scenes video on 3 October 2026 from the sets of his upcoming period drama ‘Ranabaali’, in which his wife Rashmika Mandanna mimics his dialogue delivery and body language. In the clip, Rashmika walks towards Vijay sitting on a swing chair, delivers his line ‘This is Singanamala Bobbili Ranabaali’, then blushes. Vijay captioned the post calling her a ‘Cute Savage’ and his ‘entertainment everyday’.
‘Ranabaali’, directed by Rahul Sankrityan, is set for release on 16 October 2026 in five languages. It stars Vijay as the titular Telugu rebel fighting British rule, Rashmika as his wife Jayamma, and Arnold Vosloo as the antagonist. The trailer is scheduled for 7 October 2026.
