Rashmika Vijay, Allu Arjun, and Ram Charan in Allu Sirish for his pre-wedding celebrations.

Allu Sirish and Nayanika’s pre-wedding celebrations are now in full swing. On Sunday, the couple hosted Allu Sirish’s pelli koduku ceremony at their family residence in Hyderabad, an intimate and traditional affair. This important ritual in Telugu weddings began with the mangala snanam, where the groom was ceremonially bathed and applied with turmeric and sandalwood paste, signifying purification, blessings, and the transition into married life.
Following the ritual bath, close family and friends gathered to celebrate, with women from the extended family offering gifts, blessings, and heartfelt wishes to the groom ahead of the wedding. The ceremony was graced by the immediate Allu family, including renowned producer Allu Aravind and superstar Allu Arjun, who attended with his wife Sneha Reddy. Actor Ram Charan and his wife Upasana Konidela were also present, along with Balachandra’s wife Vasundhara and other close family members. Adding to the festive atmosphere, newlyweds Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna joined the celebrations, spreading warmth and cheer.
Allu Sirish, the younger brother of Allu Arjun, made his acting debut as a lead in Gouravam (2013) and has since carved a name for himself in Telugu cinema. His pre-wedding rituals with Nayanika reflect the rich traditions of Telugu weddings while also celebrating family bonds and friendships. The couple is set to tie the knot on March 6, marking the beginning of a new chapter in their lives. The festivities, blending age-old customs with joyful celebrations, have offered a glimpse of the love, blessings, and excitement surrounding the much-anticipated wedding of Allu Sirish and Nayanika.
