Sandeep Reddy Vanga is riding high on the success of “Animal,” featuring Ranbir Kapoor, which has garnered exceptional success with a staggering collection of over ₹650 crores. The film has earned acclaim from industry stalwarts like Amitabh Bachchan and Allu Arjun. Amidst this buzz, an intriguing rumor is circulating in film circles.
In a few days, Rashmika Mandanna, the lead actress of “Animal,” is reportedly set to join the sets of “Pushpa 2,” the highly anticipated Pan-India movie, in Hyderabad. Director Sukumar and superstar Allu Arjun have been engrossed in shooting pivotal sequences for the past month, including the Jaathara scene. Reports suggest that Sukumar was captivated by Rashmika’s portrayal in “Animal” as Geethanjali and has reworked some scenes to amplify her character in “Pushpa 2.” As the film delves into the post-marriage phase of the protagonist’s life, Sukumar is believed to have crafted a significant role for the star actress.
With such developments, it appears that esteemed directors are eager to offer Rashmika Mandanna impactful roles, inspired by her performance in “Animal.” If she continues to meet these high expectations, the actress is poised to transcend the conventional label of a commercial glam-doll and carve a distinctive niche for herself in the industry.
