Meanwhile, Rashmika Mandanna was last seen in the blockbuster ‘Animal’ alongside Ranbir Kapoor. She will reprise her role of Srivalli in Allu Arjun-starrer ‘Pushpa 2: The Rule’.

Speaking of the film, she told Pinkvilla, “It starts feeling like home. Like, when you finish one film, and towards the end of the film you get really connected with the cast and crew, right, so when you have the part 2 coming, again you’re like, ‘Hey, what’s up!?’ and you just, sort of like, it’s party time.” 

‘Pushpa 2: The Rule’ is scheduled to release on August 15, 2024.
