Rashmika Mandanna’s diamond ring sparks engagement buzz
Recently, Rashmika Mandanna made waves at SIIMA 2025 in Dubai, with her stunning look wearing a champagne satin saree. Her elegance turned heads, but it was her Best Actress win for Pushpa 2: The Rule that stole the spotlight. However, after the event, a picture of the actress arriving in Dubai caught fans’ attention for a different reason. In the now-viral picture, the Animal star was seen sporting a diamond ring on her ring finger.
She wore a casual white shirt, paired with blue jeans. She completed her classy yet casual look by wearing black sunglasses. The picture soon became a topic of discussion among netizens, who drew different perspectives. Some users, who support the alleged couple’s relationship, felt that the ring was a hint that the duo might be engaged. The speculation was fueled when Rashmika placed her hand on her shoulder, making the ring clearly visible to both fans and paparazzi.
However, some users disagreed with the engagement rumours. They pointed out that the diamond ring was merely an accessory to complete her outfit, as she wasn’t wearing it later during the award ceremony. This sparked a debate among fans about whether it was a major hint about her current love life or simply a stylish piece of jewellery to complete her Dubai look.
