Rashmika Mandanna’s success is as much a part of ‘Pushpa 2’ as Allu Arjun. She has played the role of a grammatical housewife, shaking off the glamour. She has also been seen in bold scenes. She has been seen dancing on Allu’s lap. However, the actress was initially scared after hearing about such a dance.
According to Indian media reports, this happened during the shooting of the song ‘Peeling’. The actress was reportedly under a lot of pressure from the beginning about this dance scene. She was reportedly scared after hearing about the dance moves.
In her words, “The shooting of the song ‘Peeling’ was done a few days before the film’s release. We finished shooting that song in just five days. I was shocked to hear that this song will also be in the film and that it will have to be shot. Then I saw the video of the dance rehearsal. I was shocked. I was thinking, what in the world is going on! I feel like I have to dance on Allu Arjun sir’s lap.”
In this context, the actress said, “I am really scared when he lifts me up on his lap. And this song is all about dancing on his lap. I didn’t understand how to dance. But I understood that once I make a decision, I surrender myself to the director and co-actor. Then I think, I have to do the work. I will do whatever is required for the film.
The actress added, “You can’t work if you don’t believe in yourself. As an actor, I know that my job is to entertain. I have to satisfy the director through my work. That is my livelihood.”
‘Pushpa 2’ has crossed the Rs 1500 crore mark worldwide. It has broken records one after another. It is still running like a mad horse without a bridle in the cinema halls. Last Friday, Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna’s film crossed the Rs 1000 crore mark across India.
