EXCLUSIVE: Rashmika Mandanna recalls how Kirik Party, Animal, and Pushpa 2 have a connection and it's special
In an exclusive chat with Pinkvilla, Rashmika Mandanna recounted her journey as an actress with her movies like Animal and Pushpa 2: The Rule succeeding in December.
Rashmika Mandanna is currently enjoying the success of the Allu Arjun starrer Pushpa 2: The Rule. The actress was recently roped in for an exclusive chat with Pinkvilla Masterclass, where she recounted how her films like Animal and Pushpa 2 were major hits that were released in the month of December.
Talking about it, Rashmika Mandanna said, “It truly feels special. I think my first film (Kirik Party) was released on December 30th or 31st since then I’ve had a film called Chamak in Kannada, then Pushpa 1, Animal, and Pushpa 2. So I feel like I have some connection with the month December.”
“Now, my fear is also that next any film releasing in December, I’m like okay I hope it’s good and I hope it makes the impact the films so far have done. I can’t take so much stress on me,” the actress added.

Talking more about her journey as an actor transcending roles in films like Animal and Pushpa 2, Rashmika Mandanna recounted how she has no background in cinema. The actress explained that she never even did theater and that her only exposure to performing was through dancing in school, which became her closest interaction with the arts.
The actress shared how amazing it feels now when people hoot and cheer for her scenes in films, especially while playing Srivalli in Pushpa 2: The Rule. She highlighted how the growth she has experienced as an actress makes her feel great—something that had never even crossed her mind until it actually happened.
Moving forward, Rashmika Mandanna was recently seen in Pushpa 2, reprising her role as Srivalli from the 2021 film Pushpa: The Rise. The sequel continued the tale of the red sandalwood smuggler Pushparaju, played by Allu Arjun, and explored his journey to the top of a criminal syndicate with much deeper and richer storytelling.
The sequel, which was presented on a grander scale, also featured Fahadh Faasil reprising his role as Bhanwar Singh Shekhawat, a sadistic cop who has an intense ego clash with Pushpa. The movie was released on December 5, 2024, and is currently running successfully in theaters.
