Actors Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna have taken a meaningful step toward supporting education by awarding scholarships to 180 meritorious students through The Deverakonda Foundation. The initiative aims to encourage academic excellence and provide opportunities for students from rural areas to pursue their educational dreams.

The scholarship program benefited students from 45 schools across Achampet Mandal in Telangana. To mark the occasion, Vijay and Rashmika visited Thummanpet, a village that holds deep personal significance for the actor. It is the birthplace of Vijay's father and a place closely connected to his family roots.

Sharing the news on social media, Vijay posted a list of the scholarship recipients and expressed his happiness at seeing young students being recognized for their hard work and dedication. He recalled that the idea for the initiative was first discussed earlier this year and said he was proud to see it become a reality.

Vijay’s Vision for Education

Addressing students and their families during the event, Vijay spoke about the importance of encouraging young talent and staying connected to one's roots.

He said the scholarship may be a small contribution, but it represents a larger commitment to supporting students and becoming part of their journey toward a brighter future.

For the 180 students who received scholarships, the support represents not only financial assistance but also recognition of their hard work and potential. As the foundation looks to expand its reach in the future, the initiative could become a significant platform for nurturing talent and promoting education across the region.
