Rashmika Mandanna creates history as her last 3 films enter 500 Crore club.
Rashmika Mandanna has become the talk of the nation again. With her last three films doing wonders at the box office, Rashmika became the first actress to appear in three blockbusters that collected more than 500 Crores. While Animal collected 920 Crores, Pushpa 2 became a rage with 1800+ Crores, and her recent film Chhaava joined the 500 Cr club.
Her super hit streak started with Animal, where she romanced Ranbir Kapoor. Directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, Animal became a sensational hit for its action, drama, and music. While some called the film too violent, it still entertained a large section of the audience and collected over 900 Crores. Animal is about an emotional imbalance between a rich son and his powerful industrialist father. When his father’s life is under threat, the son vows to avenge. The story is about how far the son goes to take revenge. Although people criticized her dialogue delivery in the film, Rashmika had a crucial role in the film and she did it with perfection.
It followed with the second edition of Pushpa, the sequel to the Allu Arjun-starrer action drama. The film did well in multiplexes and Tier 2 cities as well. Pushpa 2 was well received throughout the country, especially in the Hindi belt. Rashmika took centerstage as Srivalli and did well in her role.
Chhaava, the story of Sambhaji Maharaj received critical acclaim for its story and powerful performances. Vicky Kaushal was perfect as Sambhaji and Rashmika was equally good.
Rashmika has surpassed Deepika Padukone, who had back-to-back hits with Pathaan and Jawan. However, Deepika’s role in Jawan was a cameo, where Nayanthara played the lead.
Indian film industry runs on sentiment. Now that Rashmika has three 500Cr plus films, producers are eager to sign her for their next films. They believe that her presence will bring luck and change their fortunes.
