Despite mixed reviews, the film performed well at the box office, marking another triumph for the versatile actor.
In an interview with Lifestyle Asia, Mandanna candidly discussed her approach to success, emphasizing the importance of humility and gratitude. She expressed her belief that neither joy nor success should be taken lightly, acknowledging the presence of others who may possess more talent or beauty. Rashmika stated, “I know that there are a lot of girls out there who are prettier and way more skilled and talented than I am, but I have been given this opportunity to be at the place that I am in today and I’m truly grateful.”
Rashmika highlighted the lessons she has learned over the years, stressing the significance of cherishing every moment and achievement.

Addressing the challenges of fame, Rashmika acknowledged the constant scrutiny and judgment that come with being in the public eye. She described it as a normal part of the industry but emphasized the importance of developing thick skin to withstand the pressures. Rashmika remarked, “If you speak, the world listens and passes judgments and criticisms and has many opinions – which is perfectly normal – but if you’re not thick-skinned, it can affect you mentally and emotionally.”
Looking ahead, Rashmika has a slate of exciting projects in the pipeline across Telugu and Hindi cinema. She is set to reprise her role as Srivalli in Sukumar’s “Pushpa 2: The Rule” alongside Allu Arjun, scheduled for release on August 15. Additionally, she is starring in a Telugu-Tamil bilingual film titled “Rainbow” and “The Girlfriend,” directed by Rahul Ravindran.
