Although already very popular, Rashmika Mandanna became a household name after appearing in the massive Telugu hit Pushpa. The film saw her sharing screen space with ’Stylish Star’ Allu Arjun.

In a recent interview, Rashmika spoke candidly about how she and the team of Pushpa had never anticipated what the movie would ultimately become.

“After one, even two and three months (post the film’s release), people kept messaging us. We didn’t anticipate the madness of the film, but we knew that we had done something right,” Rashmika Mandanna said while speaking to journalist Siddharth Kannan.
