Rashmika Mandanna Opens Up About Handling Fame; ‘If You’re Not Thick-Skinned…’
Rashmika Mandanna, an actor, has been having success. She experienced enormous success with Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Animal, starring Ranbir Kapoor, after Pushpa: The Rise and Sita Ramam. The movie performed well at the box office despite receiving mixed reviews. The performer discussed why she doesn’t take her success for granted in an interview with Lifestyle Asia.
‘I’ve learnt not to take it lightly’
In an interview with the journal, Rashmika said she doesn’t think it’s appropriate to take happiness or success lightly as she wants to make the most of her opportunities because some are more gifted or attractive than her.
“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 am really grateful that I have been given this opportunity to be where I am today,” the woman remarked. I have realized in the past few years that no happiness in life or professional achievement should be taken for granted.
‘If you’re not thick-skinned it affects you’
Rashmika discussed being scrutinized for every decision she has made since becoming famous in the same interview, calling it “normal.” “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, in ways that people are not very aware of,” she said, highlighting the need for thick-skin in dealing with everything that comes with this line of work.
Upcoming work
Rashmika is working on a lot of projects in Hindi and Telugu. She is playing Srivalli again in Sukumar’s Pushpa 2: The Rule, starring Allu Arjun, which hits theatres on August 15. In addition, she is starring in two films directed by Rahul Ravindran: The Girlfriend and Rainbow, a bilingual Telugu-Tamil film. She is filming Chaava in Hindi, which also stars Pradeep Rawat, Akshaye Khanna, and Vicky Kaushal.
