Some
time
ago,
it
was
reported
that
Rashmika
Mandanna
would
be
acting
in
the
Hindi
remake
of
the
recent
Telugu
hit
Jersey
and
this
grabbed
plenty
of
attention.
Sadly,
things
did
not
work
out,
leaving
fans
disappointed.
Initially,
it
was
rumoured
that
the
'Kodava
Beauty'
had
turned
down
the
offer
due
to
date
issues.
However,
according
to
the
latest
reports,
talks
broke
down
as
the
Geetha
Govindam
heroine
demanded
a
huge
amount,
giving
the
makers
a
big
shock.
Following
this,
they
roped
in
actress
Mrunal
Thakur
to
reprise
Shraddha
Srinath's
role
from
the
original
version.
Jersey
was
a
sports-drama
that
featured
Nani
in
the
lead
and
revolved
around
a
36-year-old
cricketer,
who
makes
a
comeback
under
shocking
circumstances.
In
it,
Shraddha
played
the
role
of
the
Eega
hero's
wife
and
got
decent
scope
to
showcase
her
acting
abilities.
As
such,
many
feel
that
the
young
lass
has
missed
a
good
opportunity.
Meanwhile,
Rashmika
will
next
be
seen
in
the
eagerly
awaited
Sarileru
Neekevvaru,
featuring
her
as
the
leading
lady
opposite
Mahesh
Babu.
The
film,
helmed
by
Anil
Ravipudi,
has
piqued
the
curiosity
and
this
might
work
in
its
favour
when
it
releases
on
January
11,
2020.
She
also
has
the
Allu
Arjun-Sukumar
movie,
being
referred
to
as
AA
20,
in
her
kitty.
Tollywood's
resident
'Comrade'
will
also
be
seen
in
the
Kannada
flick
Pogaru,
starring
Dhruva
Sarja.
