Vijay tells critics to mind their own business

South Indian superstar Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna have faced a wave of online criticism since appearing on the popular talk show Koffee with Karan Season 9. Some social media users labeled Vijay a “red flag” and began advising Rashmika to run away from him.

However, after growing tired of the trolling and unsolicited advice, Vijay Deverakonda hit back at his critics in strong terms.

Sharing a sweet photo and video with his wife on social media, Vijay made it clear that Rashmika was the best choice of his life and that they were currently very happy together.

Showing no courtesy toward the trolls, Vijay wrote directly, “Those who cannot tolerate our happiness should mind their own business. We are having the best time of our lives.”

Before Vijay's explosive post, Rashmika had also responded to her critics with a strongly worded note. Addressing social media users who were making reels offering her relationship advice, the “National Crush” wrote, “How happy I have been since getting married is evident from the smile on my face. A few years ago, when my life was difficult, none of these critics stood by me. Vijay was the only one who stood by my side.”

The celebrity couple has made it clear that they will not tolerate unsolicited advice from third parties about a relationship they have built on their own merits.
