Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda’s appearance on Koffee With Karan 9 has sparked online discussion after the couple spoke about how their relationship progressed towards marriage. While their exchange about Rashmika repeatedly asking Vijay to marry her was presented with humour, one social media user believes the episode could invite the kind of scrutiny Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh faced after their appearance on the chat show.

Rashmika Mandanna, Vijay Deverakonda marriage conversation

In the promo, host Karan Johar asks Vijay whether there was a proposal when someone as stunning as Rashmika entered his life. Rashmika shakes her head before recalling how she approached the subject of marriage. Vijay says she told him, “Let’s get married,” to which he responded, “Okay, you have asked me a 100 times.” When Karan asks whether she really asked him that often, Rashmika replies, “I asked him for an entire year.” Vijay adds, “I am not an a**hole,” prompting laughter.
