Hyderabad: Rashmika Mandanna is one of the most loved and celebrated actresses in Indian cinema, with a strong fan following across languages and industries. The actress often grabs headlines for her films, performances and candid social media moments.
An old photo of Rashmika holding a newborn has gone viral on Instagram after it featured in an interview with host Shrutika Arjun. In the clip, Shrutika shows Rashmika the picture, leaving the actress visibly emotional. Rashmika immediately reveals that the baby in the photograph is her younger sister, Shiman Mandanna, and recalls that the picture was taken on the day she was born.
Rashmika Mandanna shares a particularly close bond with Shiman, who is around 16 years younger than the actress. Given their considerable age gap, Rashmika has often shared that her relationship with her sister is much like that of a mother and child. She remains protective of Shiman and prefers keeping her away from the constant media attention surrounding her own life.
Despite her packed schedule and growing pan-Indian career, Rashmika continues to stay closely connected with her younger sister. The emotional moment in the interview has now struck a chord with fans, with many appreciating the actress’ softer and more personal side.
On the work front, Rashmika Mandanna has an exciting lineup of pan-Indian projects. She will be seen in Mysaa, Ranabaali, where she reunites with Vijay Deverakonda, as well as Pushpa 3 and Animal Park. She is also part of Rakka, which brings together filmmaker Atlee and Allu Arjun.
