Actress Rashmika Mandanna continues to win over fans both on and off screen. The Animal and Pushpa star, who is currently basking in the success of her latest release The Girlfriend, was recently mobbed
by an excited crowd outside a theatre in Hyderabad. Amid the chaos, Rashmika’s heartwarming gesture toward a female fan has gone viral, with netizens showering love on the actress for her humility.
Rashmika Steps In To Protect Fan, Clicks Selfie Instead
In a viral video circulating online, Rashmika is seen exiting a Hyderabad cinema hall after watching The Girlfriend. Surrounded by heavy security and fans trying to catch a glimpse of her, the actress was being escorted by bouncers through the crowd. During the commotion, one of the guards appeared to accidentally push a female fan attempting to take a selfie with Rashmika.
Noticing this, the Pushpa actress immediately stopped the bouncer and approached the woman herself. Rashmika then smiled warmly, posed for a quick picture, and thanked the fan for her affection. The woman, clearly overwhelmed, gave Rashmika her blessings and a flying kiss, a moment that melted hearts across social media.
Fans praised Rashmika’s calm and grounded response amid the chaos, calling her “pure-hearted” and “down to earth.” The clip continues to trend across platforms, with many applauding the actress for valuing her fans even in overwhelming situations.
‘The Girlfriend’ Success And Upcoming Projects
Directed by Rahul Ravindran, The Girlfriend stars Rashmika Mandanna alongside Dheekshith Shetty, Anu Emmanuel, Rohini, and Rao Ramesh in key roles. The Telugu romantic drama has opened to strong box office numbers and positive audience response.
On the professional front, Rashmika will next be seen in Cocktail 2, co-starring Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon. However, the film’s Delhi shooting schedule, which was supposed to begin on November 12, has been postponed due to heightened security following the Red Fort blast and worsening air pollution levels.
A source close to the production told Hindustan Times, “The Delhi schedule is not cancelled but just pushed. The makers are planning to resume shooting in December, if all goes well.”
