Rashmika Mandanna reveals she yearns to say goodbye to negativity that prevail

The trailer of Amitabh Bachchan and Rashmika Mandanna starrer Goodbye was revealed by the makers today(6 September). It was unveiled at an event where Amitabh Bachchan joined virtually and cast and makers of the film including producer Ekta Kapoor and director Vikas Bahl were present. The flick marks Rashmika’s debut in Bollywood.

Talking about a flaw in the industry to which she would like to say Goodbye to, Rashmika said, “Not just the industry, but if there is one thing in my life to which I would like to say goodbye to is Covid. Another one, I think would be the negativity that surrounds us or anyone else. I am a happy and positive person. So I wish the world is also like that.”

Talking about her experience of working with Stalwarts like Amitabh Bachchan and Allu Arjun, the actress said, “All I can say is that I am living my dream. I am kickstarting Pushpa 2 with Allu Arjun in a couple of days. But, right now having this trailer out in the presence of Amitabh Bachchan feels surreal. We were tearing up as well as smiling through the whole trailer.”

The diva also recalled her first meet with Amitabh bachchan and revealed she taught that he didn’t like her. Sharing the anecdote, Rashmika told, “I remember shooting on my birthday with him. He walked on the sets and I was brimming with joy as I wanted to introduce myself. Amitabh Bachchan was revising his scenes and so he did not see me. I was so nervous and throughout the shooting I remember that initially I thought he didn’t like me because he was so strict.”

She further said that it was after Pushpa’s trailer her thought changed. She stated, “I remember one day when I walked on the sets, everyone was like ‘did you see Twitter?’ I was like ‘no, what happened?’ They were like ‘Bachchan sir posted a picture saying Pushpa. I was like ‘wait, that happened! I think our relationship got closer and closer throughout the making of this film. He is a beautiful person and I was lucky to see that side of a legend like him.
