At the wedding reception of Rashmika Mandanna and Vijay Deverakonda, actor Ram Charan arrived barefoot alongside his wife, Upasana Kamineni, drawing attention and praise on social media. This gesture aligns with his observance of Ayyappa Deeksha, a 41-day spiritual vow involving strict discipline, including walking barefoot, worn simple attire, celibacy, and a vegetarian diet, undertaken by devotees preparing for the Sabarimala pilgrimage. Ram Charan's commitment to this tradition has been noted in previous years.
