The beloved stars took to social media to share a stunning visual diary of their holiday, blending deeply rooted traditions with their life as husband and wife. Rashmika led the digital festivities with an Instagram post captioned, "Happyyyy Diwaliiiii from all of us to you, my lovessss!".
The actress kicked things off with a sweet video message shot in a serene Japanese garden.

Her photo carousel perfectly captured the joy of their getaway. One standout image featured a beaming Rashmika hugging Vijay tightly from behind in a lush park, while Vijay looked dapper in a denim jacket and a black beret. The gallery also served as a beautiful family album, showcasing a joyful boat ride where Rashmika and Vijay were seen taking a selfie in blue life jackets. They weren't alone on the water; another heartwarming group selfie showed the couple on the same boat accompanied by Vijay’s parents. Rashmika also included a serene, eyes-closed solo shot by the river, and a gorgeous glimpse of traditional Japanese landscaping featuring a small stream and historic architecture.
The playful sibling dynamic was on full display, too. In one hilarious snap, Rashmika playfully flashed bunny ears behind Anand Deverakonda, who was seen sporting a green baseball cap. The trio also posed for a highly stylized black-and-white photo, chilling together on a wooden fence. However, the absolute showstopper of Rashmika's dump was a blurry, intimate nighttime photograph where she and Vijay, dressed in a black leather jacket, were captured standing incredibly close to one another in a deeply romantic moment.
Vijay took to his own Instagram to share a slightly different, deeply spiritual side of their trip. His caption read, "When you find a way to do GOMA (Homam) in Japan on Happy DIWALI," sending "lots of love, biggest hugs and Diwali wishes to you and all your family from the Deverakonda family".
The actor backed up his caption with a fascinating video showing him participating in a traditional Japanese fire ritual (Goma) by a scenic riverbed, guided by local priests. In a blink-and-you-miss-it moment in the same video, Rashmika can be seen sharing a warm, affectionate hug with Vijay’s mother in the background, highlighting the tight-knit family bond on this trip.
Vijay’s photo drops included a beautiful black-and-white shot of him and Rashmika sharing a hearty laugh by a scenic overlook, as well as his own version of the stylish black-and-white trio photo with Rashmika and Anand on the wooden fence. Another candid image showed the entire group sitting together at a wooden table outdoors, smiling as they wrote on small wooden prayer sticks.
To cap it all off, Vijay shared a breathtaking, cinematic photo taken from behind, showing him with his arm wrapped securely around his wife's shoulders as they strolled together through a towering, golden-hued bamboo forest.
For fans who have followed their journey, these carefully curated, overlapping vacation posts were the ultimate festive treat. Between the intimate hugs, the shared family rituals, and the breathtaking Japanese backdrops, Rashmika and Vijay are clearly thriving in their new chapter together.
