Rashmika Mandanna mesmerised fans with her performance in Allu Arjun's Pushpa: The Rise. The stunning dance moves of the National crush from the film's Saami song went viral on social media and appear to be garnering new followers.
Snoop Dogg, a US rapper, recently posted a video of a little girl imitating the actor's signature step from the same. This shows how far Rashmika's popularity has spread outside of India. After watching it, the actor commented on the post, “Love it.”
Pushpa: The Rise becomes the first Indian album to reach 5 billion views on social media. With a cast that included Allu Arjun, Rashmika Mandanna, and Fahadh Faasil, the film's success was all but guaranteed before its release. Nevertheless, it outperformed all forecasts, becoming the highest-grossing Indian film of 2021. It currently ranks among the highest-ranking Telugu films of all time. Devi Sri Prasad composed all the songs for the Telugu action drama.
Even a year after its release, the film is still receiving good responses on social media. Pushpa: The Rise, which was originally released in Telugu before being dubbed into other Indian languages, appears to have broken down all cultural barriers to become a pan-Indian success. The Hindi version was released on Amazon Prime Video after its extended theatrical run.
Earlier this month, a post was shared by the makers, stating that the work on the second instalment, Pushpa: The Rule had started.
Rashmika Mandanna has been a part of high-budget films since the beginning, and her career has risen even further since Pushpa: The Rise, but she believes that every film she has done has helped her get to where she is. In an interview, she was quoted as saying: “I would not have been chosen for Geeta Govindam had I not done Kirik Party or Chalo. I am aware that the scripts I choose now will influence who I am tomorrow.”
The actor has her kitty full with an interesting line-up of films. Varisu, starring Thalapathy Vijay, will be released next. She will also appear in Mission Majnu with the handsome Sidharth Malhotra and Animal with Brahmastra star, Ranbir Kapoor.
