Rashmika Mandanna BREAKS Silence on Being Trolled for Animal Film Dialogue: 'I Don't Want to Ever...'

When Ranbir Kapoor and Rashmika Mandanna starrer Animal hit theatres in December 2023, it ruled headlines for several reasons. While some loved the Sandeep Reddy Vanga directorial, others called it toxic. Rashmika was also trolled after the release of the film with many alleging that her Karva Chauth scene dialogue was unclear. Four months after the film’s release, Rashmika Mandhana has now finally broken silence on the trolling she faced.

Recently, Rashmika appeared on Neha Dhupia’s show when she gave a befitting reply to trolls and explained to them the amount of hard work that went into the making of that Karva Chauth scene. She revealed that everyone on set cheered after the 9-minute-long sequence was shot and expressed that even she thought it was done brilliantly.

“I don’t like people trolling women on their bodies.. as long as that’s not the case and they’re trolling me about my films, cinema, my face in the film when I say the dialogue… I know how the performance was. I have done the performance five months ago,” Rashmika said.

“The Karwa Chauth scene which was a nine-minute long scene and while doing the scene, people on the set loved it. They were clapping and felt it was done so well. But the trailer came out and I was trolled so much for that one particular dialogue from the same scene. So I thought, I did the 9-minute long scene and everyone on the set liked it, but people now are trolling me for the same. So am I living in a bubble? Like are people not gonna like this scene? Because you know what you’ve shot, but people don’t know. People just know that like those 10 seconds. So I don’t want to ever be in my life where I’m living in a bubble. I need to be on the ground. I need to talk to people. I need to know what’s really going on,” the actress added.

Animal was a box office success and earned over Rs 900 crore worldwide.

Meanwhile, Rashmika will soon be seen in Pushpa 2- The Rule with Allu Arjun. She also has Kubera with Dhanush, Chhava with Vicky Kaushal, Rainbow and The Girlfriend in her pipeline.
