A Cinematic Reunion for the Married Couple
Ranabaali holds special significance for fans of the pair, as it marks the first time Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna will share the silver screen following their real-life marriage in February 2026. While this is their first film as a married couple, it is their third professional collaboration, following their previous massive successes in Geetha Govindam and Dear Comrade.
Set against a historical backdrop spanning the years 1854 to 1878, the film is being positioned as a high-octane period action drama centered on themes of resistance. To further build anticipation, the makers have also released the track “Endhayya Saami,” a song that highlights the on-screen chemistry between the two leads.
