Actress
Rashmika,
who
started
her
screen
life
as
a
heroine
through
Kannada
cinema,
had
previously
sparked
a
controversy
by
saying
that
she
had
not
seen
the
blockbuster
Kannada
movie
Kantara.
Rashmika
went
so
far
as
to
break
off
her
romantic
relationship
with
Kannada
actor
and
producer
Rakshit
Shetty,
which
gave
her
a
huge
infamy
in
Kannada
cinema.
In
this
case,
earlier
she
said
that
she
had
not
seen
the
film
Kantara
and
when
talking
about
the
film
starring
Rakshit
Shetty,
she
refused
to
name
the
production
company.
In
response
to
this,
Kantara
director
and
hero
Rishabh
Shetty
in
his
recent
interview
responded
dismissively
towards
Rashmika
Mandanna.
The
Kannada
Producers
Association
had
earlier
said
that
Rashmika's
films
would
continue
to
be
banned
in
Kannada.
In
this
case,
famous
Kannada
actor
and
Naan
Ee
movie
villain
Kicha
Sudeep
has
commented
on
Rashmika's
continued
hatred
of
the
Kannada
film
industry.
Kicha
Sudeep
said
that
the
life
of
celebrities
is
such
that
they
get
stones
like
garlands.
In
an
interview
to
a
private
media,
Sudeep
said,
"It
is
as
it
is.
How
can
we
change
the
world?
If
you
go
15-20
years
back,
news
channels
used
to
interview
us.
It
was
very
new
at
that
time.
But
if
you
go
back
to
actor
Rajkumar's
time,
there
was
nothing
but
Doordarshan
and
newspapers.
Everything
goes
wrong
with
media
reports.
We
have
to
learn
to
handle
it.
We
must
always
pass.
And
if
you're
a
celebrity,
you'll
have
garlands
on
one
hand
and
eggs,
tomatoes
and
stones
on
the
other."
It
is
noteworthy
that
Rashmika,
who
had
previously
posted
on
her
Instagram
page
about
the
negative
news
and
hate
campaigns
spread
about
her,
expressed
her
concern
by
posting
a
big
article
saying,
"
Hi
so..
A
couple
of
things
have
been
troubling
me
these
last
few
days
or
weeks
or
months
or
maybe
even
years
now
and
I
think
it's
time
I
address
it.
I
am
only
speaking
for
myself
-
something
I
should
have
done
years
ago.
I
have
been
on
the
receiving
end
of
a
lot
of
hate
ever
since
I
started
my
career.
Quite
literally
a
punching
bag
for
a
lot
of
trolls
and
negativity
out
there.
I
know
that
the
life
I've
chosen
comes
with
a
price-
I
understand
that
I'm
not
everyone's
cup
of
tea
and
certainly
don't
expect
to
be
loved
by
every
single
person
out
there.
That
doesn't
mean
because
you
don't
approve
of
me
you
can
spew
negativity
instead.
Only
I
know
the
kind
of
work
I
put
in,
day
in
and
day
out
to
make
you
all
happy.
The
happiness
you
feel
from
the
work
I
put
out
is
what
I
care
about
most.
I
really
am
trying
the
best
I
can
to
put
out
things
that
both
you
and
I
are
proud
of.
It's
heart
breaking
and
frankly
quite
demoralising
when
I'm
being
ridiculed
and
mocked
by
the
internet
especially
for
things
that
I
HAVE
NOT
SAID.
I've
found
that
bits
of
things
I've
said
in
interviews
are
being
turned
against
me.
False
narratives
being
spread
across
the
internet
that
can
be
very
harmful
to
me
and
the
relationships
I
have
in
or
outside
the
industry.
I
welcome
constructive
criticism
because
that's
only
going
to
push
me
to
improve
and
do
better.
But
what's
with
the
vile
negativity
and
hate?
For
the
longest
time
I've
been
told
to
ignore
it.
But
it
has
only
gotten
worse.
By
addressing
it,
I'm
not
trying
to
win
anyone
over.
I
don't
want
to
feel
closeted
and
forced
to
change
as
a
human
being
because
of
this
hate
I
keep
receiving.
That
being
said,
I
do
recognise
and
acknowledge
all
the
love
I've
been
receiving
from
the
rest
of
you.
Your
constant
love
and
support
is
what
has
kept
me
going
and
given
me
the
courage
to
come
out
and
say
this.
I
only
have
love
for
everyone
around
me,
the
people
I've
worked
with
so
far,
all
of
whom
I've
always
admired.
I
will
continue
to
work
hard
and
do
better
for
you.
Because
like
I
said,
making
you
happy
-makes
me
happy.
Be
kind
everyone.
We're
all
trying
to
do
our
best.
Thankyou."
