Rashmika Mandanna, a well-known actress in Bollywood and South Indian films, is soon to marry her longtime partner Vijay Deverakonda. As part of the royal wedding preparations, her younger sister Shiman Mandanna has joined their mother Suman in Udaipur to participate in the celebrations. There is a tradition in Indian weddings where a younger sibling steals the groom's shoes, and Shiman is expected to take part in this playful ritual, eagerly anticipating her interaction with Vijay, whom she will affectionately refer to as 'Jijaji' (brother-in-law).

Rashmika has kept her younger sister, who is only 14 years old, away from the spotlight, and not many people know much about Shiman. In interviews, Rashmika has expressed her emotional longing to spend time with her sister due to their significant age difference of 16 years. This disparity has made it challenging for them to bond, and Rashmika has expressed feelings of sadness on her days off when she cannot be with Shiman, revealing a softer side to her persona.

In a heartfelt interview with Nod Magazine in 2025, Rashmika shared her emotional struggles regarding their relationship, as she cries at home when she thinks about her sister. With their mother accompanying Shiman to the wedding festivities, Rashmika's family will be complete, bringing together joys and traditions that highlight the love and connection within their family, even amid the busy life of a celebrity.
