Newly married Telugu film stars Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna are taking their first major initiative as a couple into the realm of philanthropy. The pair have announced plans to launch annadanam, the practice of providing free meals, in temples in multiple cities across India, demonstrating a commitment to community welfare and service.
The initiative, according to sources close to the couple, is inspired by their shared belief in giving back to society and using their platform for positive impact. Annadanam holds deep cultural significance in India, especially in temple settings where offering food to devotees and those in need is regarded as a noble and auspicious act. By choosing temples as the focal points of their programme, Vijay and Rashmika aim to touch lives at a grassroots level and bring people together through a universal act of compassion.
Annadanam events are expected to take place in temples in several Indian cities, though specific locations and dates have not been officially disclosed. Organisers say the couple will work with local volunteers and community groups to ensure that the meals reach those who need them most. The programme’s rollout during religious and festive periods could enhance its impact, as temple attendance typically sees a boost during these times.
