Last
year,
actress
Rashmika
Mandanna
became
the
talk
of
the
town
for
all
the
right
reasons
when
Geetha
Govindam
opened
to
a
good
response
at
the
box
office.
The
film,
starring
her
as
the
female
lead
opposite
Vijay
Deverakonda,
boasted
of
a
fun-filled
plot
and
this
helped
it
click
with
the
target
audience.
Sadly,
her
next
release
Devadas
under-performed
at
the
box
office
and
ended
up
being
a
disappointment.
With
the
year
of
mixed
fortunes
behind
her,
the
Kodava
beauty
is
back
in
the
limelight
for
a
surprising
reason.
According
to
reports,
Rashmika
Mandanna
lost
out
on
several
films
in
Kannada
and
Telugu
after
she
agreed
to
act
opposite
Karthi
in
her
maiden
Kollywood
movie.
The
Chalo
girl
failed
to
adjust
her
dates
and
this
resulted
in
her
losing
a
few
lucrative
offers.
Reports
further
state
that
Rashmika
was
paid
a
handsome
amount
by
the
makers
of
Karthi's
movie
in
order
to
make
up
for
the
lost
opportunities.
The
actress
wasn't
paid
much
for
her
initial
movies.
However,
she
hiked
her
fees
post
the
success
of
Geetha
Govindam
and
began
charging
around
Rs
45
lakh
per
movie.
The
buzz
is
that
her
salary
for
the
Karthi
movie
is
at
least
30
percent
higher
than
what
she
is
generally
paid.
Meanwhile,
Rashmika
is
currently
awaiting
the
release
of
Dear
Comrade,
which
is
slated
to
hit
screens
this
month.
The
film
marks
her
second
collaboration
with
the
leader
of
the
'Rowdy
Army'
and
this
is
its
biggest
highlight.
Rashmika
will
also
be
seen
in
Pogaru,
featuring
Dhruva
Sarja
in
the
lead.
The
buzz
is
that
she
might
soon
be
signed
on
to
play
the
lead
opposite
Tamil
star
Vijay
in
Thalapathy
64
but
this
has
not
been
confirmed
yet.
All
in
all,
she
clearly
has
a
lot
on
her
plate.

Rashmika's
upcoming
movies?
