Rashmika Mandanna is one of the most popular actresses in the country as she has worked in Kannada, Telugu, Tamil as well as Hindi films. Her career graph might lead you to believe that she was born to be an actress but in reality, there was time when Rashmika didn't think she was cut out for it. "For me, becoming an actor itself was a huge deal because I never thought I could be one," she told The Indian Express.
In the same interview, Rashmika also opened up about how her parents were unsure about her career choice. She revealed, "They were skeptical, oh my god! So, I have a sister who is sixteen years younger to me. So now when I see my parents give so much freedom to her, I’m like, ‘Hey, now this is not fair.’ They used to be protective of me because I’m this person who can’t say no and my parents have been the first people to see that. So, anything they said, I’d always agree with them and be nice. So, they’d say, ‘How will you survive out there in the world?’ But I was sure I’d figure it out when I go through something like that. They were very concerned."
The actress added, "Even today, when I tell my mother about my hectic days and how I’m tired, she simply tells me, ‘Why are you doing so much work? Who’s telling you to do all this? Nothing doing, enough of acting. Just come home!’ And I tell her how it has all just started and to give me some time."
