South Indian cinema’s most favorite and popular couple Rashmika Mandanna (29) and Vijay Deverakonda (36) have finally shared the news for which their fans were waiting for years. On Sunday night, both the stars announced their marriage through a very emotional post on their Instagram handle. But the word that caught everyone’s attention in this entire announcement is – ‘VIROSH’.
What is the real meaning of ‘VIROSH’?
If you are thinking that it is a Sanskrit word or the name of a place, then you are wrong. Actually, ‘Virosh’ is not an official name but a cute ‘couple name’ (portmanteau) given by the fans of Vijay and Rashmika. Vi: Initial letters of the name Vijay. Rosh: The name of Rashmika by which fans fondly call her.
