When Pushpa 2 star Rashmika Mandanna landed in trouble for calling Yash ‘Mr show-off’

Rashmika Mandanna is one of the most sought-after actresses in South cinema today. She has impressed fans with her stylish screen presence and sincere performances. While everyone is aware of her body of work, not everyone may know that she once landed in big trouble for her comments about KGF actor Yash.?

When Rashmika Mandanna upset Yash fans

Rashmika Mandanna began her career with the 2016 Kannada campus drama Kirik Party and soon emerged as a force to reckon with. During the promotions of the Rakshit Shetty-led film, she participated in a ‘rapid fire’ session. On being asked to name an actor who fit the tag ‘Mr Show-off’, she picked Yash.?

This upset the Rocking Star’s fans and they trolled her on social media. Following this, she apologised for the remark and added that she looked up to Yash. The actress added that her comments had been taken out of context.?

“I have no disrespect towards Yash sir or anyone. In fact, on several occasions, I am inspired by Yash sir, his talent, and how he is himself… sadly, the media has overlooked that I mentioned ‘Santhu Straight Forward’ as the film, which I enjoyed the most. When you edit and spin just two lines from the most non-serious part of the show, then the whole essence is lost… it’s really sad,” read her post

Shortly after the controversy, Yash emerged as a pan-India star with KGF (2018). He then consolidated his standing with KGF 2. Rashmika, on the other hand, became the ‘National Crush’ with her work in Geetha Govindam and Pushpa.?

On the work front

Coming to the present, Yash is working on Toxic. The film is directed by Geethu Mohandas and features the mass hero in the role of a gangster. Rashmika, on the other hand, will next be seen in Pushpa 2. The actioner is set to hit the screens on December 5. She also has Vicky Kaushal’s Chhavva and the Dhanush-led Kubera in her kitty.?
