Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda’s wedding has been nothing short of magical, filled with emotional moments, grand rituals and playful traditions. One such highlight from the ceremony was the fun-filled joota churai rasam, where the bride’s side steals the groom’s shoes and demands money in return.
In an exclusive detail from the wedding, Vijay Deverakonda reportedly gifted ₹10 lakh to his youngest sister-in-law, Shiman Mandanna, during the ritual. The 14-year-old cleverly hid her jiju’s shoes and demanded a hefty amount. Sources reveal that Vijay happily gave her more than she asked for, winning hearts with his generous gesture.
