Rashmika Mandanna continues to be in the news but for all the wrong reasons. Sadly, this time, it’s due to her words that are getting unwanted attention.
Rashmika in trouble
Actress Rashmika Mandanna, who made her Bollywood debut this year with Good Bye co-starring Amitabh Bachchan recently got herself into trouble. At the song launch event of her forthcoming Hindi film ‘Mission Maju’ with Sidharth Malhotra, she spoke about the difference between song genres in South and Bollywood which has not gone down too well with her fans.
In the video which has gone viral, Rashmika describes how romantic songs always meant Bollywood to her and when it comes to South cinema – it’s always the mass masala dance and items songs. She was trying to show her love for romantic Bollywood songs but looks like her statement annoyed many.
#RashmikaMandanna has attained a special talent to piss off her previous fan base once she shifts to a different city. Bangalore/Hyderabad/Mumbai.
Brands South as Masala & Item Songs!

Already there is substantial hate going on against Rashmika from the Kannada audience for disrespecting the industry which introduced her to movies and several pro-Kannada groups have already asked for a ban on the actress from acting in the Kannada industry in the future and this kind of statement will surely bring more trouble for the films she is currently acting in Tamil and Telugu.
Twitter Reactions
Netizens are pointing out the romantic songs Rashmika has been part of from ‘Kirik Party’, ‘Chalo’, ‘Geetha Govindam’, ‘Dear Comrade’, and ‘Pushpa’ and asking why she is blindly honoring Bollywood romantic songs and putting down South films songs.
Now Telugu & Tamil audience will understand why kannada audience hate this actress…

I literally blame tollywood for making her what today. She never deserved any projects after sarileru. But she was blessed with huge projects like Pushpa for no reason. As you sow, so you reap. She first ditched her home, now entire South india.

She is saying south doesnt have romantic numbers ? Her 1st, 2nd films are romantic comedies, any actress will dream lead role like Geetha Govindam. She is big oppurtunist. South always valued heroines, Tamanna and Rakul were given soft po*n heroine role in bollywood.

Unwanted unnecessary statement she obviously don't know how to manage the fame she attained.
That is why there is huge negativity around her in almost every industry.— silverstar సిల్వ (@silverstar003) December 28, 2022
