One of the heroines who has grown pretty faster in Tollywood these days is none other than Rashmika Mandanna. While the likes of Kajal Aggarwal and Samantha took nearly a decade to reach the position of demanding ₹ 2-3 crores per film, this heroine’s interesting social media strategy and publicity stunts won her huge attention and she is trying to cash on that craze now.
Unlike any other star heroines, Rashmika hasn’t shied away from dancing to Saami song of “Pushpa” at every press meet and the signature waist-gyrating step of the actress went viral in no time.
Fortunately, Pushpa did amazingly well at the box office in Hindi circuits, thus making Pushpa 2 a big challenge for both Allu Arjun and creative director Sukumar. However, Rashmika is said to have given them a twist with their remuneration demand, post that success.
As Allu Arjun marries Rashmika towards the end of Pushpa, surely they can’t go with another heroine for the sequel of this blockbuster movie. Sensing that the second part is being made on a huge scale than the first one, Rashmika is said to have demanded nearly ₹ 5 crores as remuneration. For the first part, they are said to have paid her ₹ 1 crore as a pay packet.
Well, that’s what they say making hay while the sun shines and it looks like Rashmika knows how to do it quite well. On the other hand, she has Vijay’s film in Tamil and 2-3 movies in Bollywood as well coming up.
