After getting married in Udaipur – with a blend of custom and kindness – Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna came back to Telangana. At a friendly welcome in Thummanapeta on March 2, 2026, the pair had a Satyanarayana Vratam and a grihapravesam. The occasion became important when Vijay said he was starting a scholarship program for students in the area.
Vijay Deverakonda Tells of Scholarship Program
Vijay explained that his charity would pay for scholarships for students in the ninth and tenth grades at 44 state schools in the Achampet Division of Telangana. He made the point that the program was made to lessen financial difficulties and help students in these important school years.
With Rashmika and his parents on stage, the actor announced this to a loud crowd of fans and people from the village. This moment showed that the couple wanted to connect their personal celebrations with giving back to the community.
Details of the Project and What it Will Mean for People in the Area
Because these years often decide what students will do in school later, the scholarship is for ninth and tenth graders. Vijay described the program as a sensible way to help families not have a sudden financial shock when getting ready for board tests and the high-pressure years of school.
Although the exact amount of money and how people will be chosen are still to be told, the project will work through the actor’s charity and local school administrations. People in authority and the people who live there welcomed the move, saying that scholarships aimed at certain groups can make students go to school more, feel better, and be better prepared for tests.
Rituals on Returning Home and How the Community Reacted
The trip to Thummanapeta was very personal for Vijay and his family. Traditional ceremonies – with the grihapravesam – made a close feeling, which was very different from the large number of people at the public event and the happy welcome.
Social media made the event more well-known, with videos and photos being shared a lot. Fans praised the couple, and wrote comments about Vijay’s action and hoped he would take on more public jobs in the future. The local promise that the actor would visit more often pleased people in the village.
Wedding Parties and Being Involved With the Public
Before going home, the new husband and wife shared moments from their sangeet night on Instagram. Rashmika put up pictures with a nice note about family, surprises, and dancing all night. Vijay also shared honest moments showing happiness and being together.
The couple got married on February 26 in a private event with only close family and friends. Their post-wedding events will end with a private party in Hyderabad on March 4, which is expected to have important people from the film world.
What This Means for Education and Famous People Giving to Charity
Scholarships run by famous people can bring attention and money to schools that don’t get much, but long-term gains depend on staying involved. Programs that do well usually have clear ways to pick people, results that can be measured, and working with local school authorities.
It is a good plan to focus on the ninth and tenth grades, because those years affect what subjects students choose and what chances they will have in the future. If it is managed well, the scholarship could lower the risk of students leaving school, improve grades, and get other public people to help education projects that start at the local level.
In Thummanapeta, Vijay and Rashmika mixed personal tradition with public action, giving the message that celebrating and being responsible to society can go together. The scholarship announcement adds a real result to their well-known wedding, and people in the area are now waiting for more details and when it will be put into practice.
