Rashmika Mandanna, one of the most successful actresses in recent years, recently achieved a significant milestone with the box-office success of Pushpa 2. The film’s success has brought in an astounding ₹1500 crore at the global box office, but Rashmika remained humble about it. Instead of celebrating extravagantly, she focused on her work.
In a recent interview, Rashmika expressed her gratitude but shared that she didn’t have much time to celebrate. “I feel extremely grateful and I could really celebrate, but I started working on my next film just two days after the release,” she said. However, she did take time to enjoy a sweet, intimate dinner with her closest people, and her family also prepared a meal. She described those two moments as special.
Rashmika also expressed admiration for Priyanka Chopra, calling her “the life of the most.” She praised Priyanka’s strength, beauty, and confidence, saying, “I find her very beautiful and extremely strong. She slays and I love that.” Rashmika highlighted how she admires women who celebrate, respect, and take care of themselves.
When talking about her own beliefs, Rashmika said she respects people who treat others with kindness, regardless of who they are or where they come from. “I respect a man who respects the rest of the world,” she shared.
On the career front, Rashmika will next be seen in The Girlfriend, a female-oriented film, as well as Sikandar, which features Bollywood superstar Salman Khan.
