Early and personal life

Rashmika Mandanna was born on 5 April 1996 into a Kodava Hindu family to Suman and Madan Mandanna in Virajpet, a town in Kodagu district of Karnataka. [1] [2] [3] Her father is the owner of a coffee estate and a function hall called Serenity in her hometown; her mother is a housewife. [4] She has a younger sister, Shiman. [5] As a child, her family struggled financially and had difficulties finding a home and paying rent; she recalled that her parents couldn't afford to buy her toys and explained how the experience has continued to influence her relationship with money even today. [6]

Rashmika attended Coorg Public School, a boarding school located in Gonikoppal. [7] She has said that during this phase of her life, she was often misunderstood due to her communication challenges, making it difficult to connect with her peers. [8] She credits her mother as a stabilising influence in her life, referring to her as her "biggest strength". [8] She studied for a bachelor's degree in Psychology, Journalism and English Literature at the M. S. Ramaiah College of Arts, Science and Commerce in Bangalore. [9] Despite initial hesitation about Rashmika's pursuit of an acting career due to her unassertive personality, her parents eventually granted her permission to follow through with it. [10] In 2014, Rashmika was awarded The Times of India's Clean & Clear Fresh Face, an award that recognizes individuals with the greatest potential for future success; [11] the award was presented to her by Akshay Kumar and she was subsequently made a brand ambassador for Clean & Clear. [12] [13] She followed this with a brief career in modelling that she believed would ease her transition into acting. [13]

Rashmika began dating her co-star Rakshit Shetty during the making of Kirik Party, with the couple getting engaged on 3 July 2017 at a private party in her hometown of Virajpet. [14] They ended their engagement in September 2018, citing compatibility issues. [15]

Career

Early work and breakthrough (2016–2020)

Rashmika made her acting debut in 2016 opposite Rakshit Shetty in Rishab Shetty’s Kannada romantic comedy Kirik Party , which went on to become one of the highest-grossing Kannada films. [16] [17] [18] Shetty offered her the role after coming across her following a pageant win. [19] Sunayana Suresh of The Times of India praised her performance, writing "Rashmika Mandanna as Saanvi is easily that pin-up girl in college and she breathes her path". [20] She earned the SIMA Award for the Best Debut Actress. [21] Rashmika later revealed that had the film failed, she would have returned home to manage her father’s business. [22] In 2017, she appeared in two Kannada films— the action picture Anjani Putra and romantic comedy Chamak. [23] [24] In the former, The Indian Express ' Manoj Kumar R thought that she had been reduced to "a hero's arm candy", while in the latter, The Times of India's Suresh commended her as a "revelation". [25] [26] Both films emerged as commercially successful. [27] [28]

Expanding to Telugu cinema in 2018, Rashmika starred opposite Naga Shaurya in the comedy drama Chalo, which tells the story of two lovers of opposing groups attempting to navigate their relationship in a segregated fictional village. [29] [30] In a positive review, The Hindu ’s Stivathsan Nadadhur praised the film's "humorous" approach on a pensive theme and was appreciative of Rashmika's comic timing. [31] The film was her fourth consecutive box-office success in two years. [32] She then took on the title role of Geetha in the Venky Kudumula-directed Telugu romantic comedy Geetha Govindam , opposite Vijay Deverakonda. [33] [34] Despite its shoestring budget, the film grossed over ₹120 crore, emerging a financial success and Rashmika’s first film to gross over ₹1 billion (US$13 million) at the domestic box-office. [35] [36] Although critics were pleased with the chemistry between Deverakonda and Rashmika, many found the picture’s plot to be repetitive; [37] [38] in a mixed review, Firstpost 's Haricharan Pudipeddi wrote, "another reason why the film works in spite of a very done-to-death plot is due to the refreshing on screen chemistry of Deverakonda and Rashmika, who make it an enjoyable watch". [39] She earned the Filmfare Critics Award for Best Actress – South. [40] [41] Rashmika's final release of 2018 was the Sriram Adittya directorial Devadas where she was disregarded as ornamental by Sify and The Indian Express . [42] [43] [44]

In 2019, Rashmika returned to Kannada cinema with the Darshan-starrer Yajamana, which follows a man that attempts to prevent a relentless business tycoon from exploiting a village of its oil. [45] [46] The film was met with mixed reviews from critics, with the age gap between Rashmika and Darshan criticised by Karthik Keramalu of Film Companion ; [47] [48] she earned another Best Actress award at SIIMA. [49] Rashmika's second release of the year was the Telugu romantic action drama Dear Comrade , where she portrayed a skillful cricket player who, following sexist remarks and discrimination, loses her passion for the sport. [50] [51] In preparation, she underwent five months of "rigorous physical training" to authentically emulate the body language of a cricketer before filming commenced. [52] The project marked her second with Deverakonda, however, they were unable to replicate the success of Geetha Govindam and it ultimately emerged as a box-office failure. [53] [54] The film also caused controversy due to a scene featuring a kiss between Deverakonda and Rashmika; when asked about the scene, Rashmika said that she was simply carrying out what the script required of her, and that one scene should not dictate the entire film. [55] [56]

She began 2020 opposite Mahesh Babu in the Telugu action comedy Sarileru Neekevvaru , which went on to become one of the top-grossing Telugu films. [57] Despite this, Rashmika’s role was poorly received by critics; [58] [59] Sangeetha Devi Dundoo of The Hindu bemoaned that her character was used solely for plot convenience and did not offer her much scope to perform as "all she gets to do is fawn over Mahesh". [60] In the same year, she starred in the Telugu romantic comedy Bheeshma opposite Nithiin. [61] [62] Despite its divergent reception critically, the film achieved considerable success at the box-office. [63] While Film Companion’s Keramalu dismissed Rashmika as an "accessory", Firstpost’s Hemanth Kumar argued that she "shines in her role". [64] [65]

Career expansion (2021–present)

In 2021, her first release was as a virtuous school teacher in the Kannada Dhruva Sarja-starrer Pogaru . [66] [67] She was criticised for taking on a role in a movie that perpetuated "stereotypes that demean women" by Vivek M V of Deccan Herald . [68] In her second release of the year, she made her debut in Tamil cinema opposite Karthi in the commercially successful Sulthan. [69] Though Pudipeddi of Hindustan Times thought that Rashmika had been "sidelined", M Suganth of The Times of India commended her on a "charming debut". [70] Her final appearance of the year was in the critically and commercially successful Pushpa: The Rise starring Allu Arjun. [71] [72] For the film, she learnt a new dialect of Telugu. [73] Set against the backdrop of the smuggling syndicate of red sandalwood, the film marked a significant breakthrough in Rashmika’s career, earning her national recognition for her role as Srivalli, Arjun’s love interest. [74] [75] Film Companion's Mukesh Manjunath found that she did her "best to imbue bubbliness and the innocence required in these testosterone-charged surroundings" but bemoaned that the brown-facing of her character was "unnecessary and ineffective". [76] Rashmika has credited the success of Pushpa: The Rise with giving her access to a wider variety of roles. [77]

The following year, Rashmika starred in three films, starting with the unremarkable Telugu feature Aadavallu Meeku Johaarlu opposite Sharwanand. [78] [79] Keen to showcase her acting skills, she then had a supporting role in the Dulquer Salmaan and Mrunal Thakur-led Telugu romantic drama Sita Ramam . [80] [81] The film received critical acclaim and was a success at the box-office. [82] In his review for Hindustan Times, Pudipeddi appreciated Rashmika’s portrayal of "a character that goes through a transformation", adding that it is "well brought out by her performance". [83] In her final release of the year, she appeared alongside Amitabh Bachchan and Neena Gupta as a mourning daughter struggling to cope with the loss of her mother in Vikas Bahl's comedy drama Goodbye, marking her debut into Hindi cinema. [84] [85] Though a box-office bomb, Rashmika’s performance was generally well-received with Devesh Sharma of Filmfare describing her "as natural as can be" adding that she managed to "leave an impact even in this non-glamorous debut". [86] [87] She earned the Zee Cine Award for Best Female Debut. [88]

2023 saw Rashmika in three action films— Varisu , Mission Majnu and Animal . In Varisu, she starred opposite Vijay but she was, once again, dismissed as "arm candy" by The Times of India’s M Suganth. [89] Rashmika has said it was a "conscious choice" to star in the film despite having a role with "nothing to do", due to the recognition she would receive from Vijay's celebrity. [90] The film went on to become one of the highest-grossing films of Tamil cinema. [91] The Hindi spy thriller Mission Majnu saw Rashmika as a visually-impaired woman opposite Sidharth Malhotra. [92] [93] [94] In preparation, she underwent "special training to understand the body language and awareness of visually-impaired people". [95] Even so, her character was poorly received and the film was panned by critics due to its unduly nationalistic views. [96] [97] In a scathing review for Film Companion, Deepanjana Pal dismissed Rashmika's character as "unimportant". [98]

In Animal, Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s controversial Hindi action film starring Ranbir Kapoor, Rashmika starred as a dutiful housewife. [99] She replaced Parineeti Chopra because Vanga felt she was better suited for the role. [100] The film's content led certain commentators to accuse the film of glorifying toxic masculinity and misogyny. [101] [102] [103] WION’s Shomini Sen praised Rashmika for salvaging a poorly written character that was constrained by Vanga’s focus on "a skewed version of an alpha male". [104] Despite polarising reviews from critics, Animal proved to be a major commercial success with a gross of over ₹9 billion (US$110 million), the eighth highest-grossing Indian film of all time. [105] [106] [107] Following criticism regarding her character's perceived complicity in allowing misogyny, Rashmika defended her role. She stated that Geetanjali was "the only force at home holding her family together", and described her as "pure, real, unfiltered, strong and raw". [108]

Rashmika will next star in four Telugu films and two Hindi films: she will reprise her role as Srivalli in the sequel Pushpa 2: The Rule , star alongside Dhanush in Sekhar Kammula's Tamil-Telugu bilingual film Kubera and headline the female-led films, Rainbow and The Girlfriend; [109] [110] [111] [112] she will portray Yesubai Bhonsale, opposite Vicky Kaushal's Sambhaji, in the historical drama Chaava and star alongside Salman Khan in AR Murugadoss’ action picture Sikandar. [113] [114]

Sneha Menon Desai of Film Companion took note of Rashmika's sincerity and "down-to-earth personality", while Anupama Chopra, also from Film Companion, described Rashmika as "intelligent" and acknowledged her ability to resonate with audiences. [115] [116]

Rashmika was placed at the 24th position in Bangalore Times' 25 Most Desirable Women of 2016 and also appeared in the Bangalore Times' 30 Most Desirable women of 2017. [117] [118] In October 2021, she placed first in Forbes India's most influential stars on Instagram in South Cinema. [119] In 2024, Rashmika was featured by Forbes India in their 30 Under 30 list. [120] As of March 2024, Rashmika is the most-followed Kannada actress on Instagram. [121] [122]

Rashmika is an endorser for several brands and products, including McDonald's, [123] Dabur Honey, [124] Cashify, [125] Kalyan Jewellers [126] and Bisk Farm [127] among others. In 2023, she was made the first Indian ambassador for Japanese fashion brand Onitsuka Tiger. She and Tiger Shroff were named "strategic partners" of American streaming service Crunchyroll for their efforts to expand in India. [128] [129] As an ambassador for the Onitsuka Tiger, she attended Milan Fashion Week and walked the runway, while for Crunchyroll, she presented an award at the 8th Crunchyroll Anime Awards in Japan. [130] [131]

In November 2023, a deepfake of Rashmika was posted on the platform X by digital marketer Eemani Naveen. [132] Rashmika’s face was morphed on to a sexually suggestive Instagram video posted by a British-Indian influencer named Zara Patel. [133] In response, Rashmika released a statement saying she was "[scared] not only for me, but also for each one of us who today is vulnerable to so much harm because of how technology is being misused". [134] She received support from prominent figures in Indian cinema, including her Goodbye co-star Amitabh Bachchan, who spoke out against the dangers of such deepfakes. [135] In December 2023, Delhi Police "communicated with Meta to obtain the URL ID associated with the account responsible for generating the video", and filed a First information report (FIR) in relation to the case. [136] In January 2024, Naveen was arrested; he claimed he had created the deepfake in order to gain followers on Instagram. [137]
