The young and talented actress Rashmika Mandanna, also known as the National Crush Of India, is all set to make her big Bollywood debut with the movie 'Mission Majnu'. Do you want to know how Rashmika got the movie?

Director, Shantanu Baagchi while talking to a leading daily, said, “We were looking for a talented actress with a fresh, beautiful face. I was especially impressed by her nuanced performance in ‘Dear Comrade’. She also has the right mixture of innocence and beauty required for the role. It is a crucial role in the film that needed a sensitive interpretation of the character. I think there’s an excellent chance Indian audiences will discover another movie star from the south.”

Rashmika is currently busy with the Bollywood film 'Mission Majnu' with Sidharth Malhotra. According to the reports, she has also bagged another Bollywood film, which is still under the wraps. 

Appreciating Mandanna, Producer Amar Butala expressed, “My first interaction with Rashmika was a zoom call amid the lockdown when we narrated the script of Mission Majnu. It was remarkable to see her react to the script and how she picked up the same nuance of her character even though we were on a video call. It’s been a pleasure working with her because she brings a solid experience and confidence of a big movie star and has the sincere energy of a newcomer. We look forward to Hindi film audiences discovering her in Mission Majnu."

Producer Garima Mehta said, “The first thing you see in Rashmika is her sparkling smile and the sheer energy and charm that she has. Since her debut film, Kirik Party, later Geetha Govindham and Dear Comrade, she has grown a lot as an actress. We were sure she would bring alive her role in the film. Rashmika and Sidharth share great on-screen chemistry in Mission Majnu and would surely be loved by her pan - India fan base. It’s exciting to see the freshness she brings to the screen.”

The entire crew of Mission Majnu is amazed by Rashmika's sincerity, hard work and dedication that she brings to the plate. Rashmika will also be seen in Goodbye with Amitabh Bachchan and a pan-India film Pushpa alongside Allu Arjun.
