Venky Kudumula, a rising director in Tollywood, has enjoyed consecutive successes, particularly with Rashmika Mandanna as the leading actress. After a hiatus of four years, he recently announced his upcoming film, once again starring Rashmika as the heroine and Nithin as the hero.
Recently, there has been online speculation that Rashmika might not be a part of this project and that Sreeleela could be stepping in. While no official announcement has been made, there are unverified reports that Rashmika decided to withdraw due to her tight schedule. Balancing multiple projects has proven difficult, leading her to advise Venky Kudumula to consider other options.
Even though Rashmika’s departure seems amicable, some online users have expressed dissatisfaction, suggesting that she should have communicated her decision earlier to Venky. They highlight that he delayed starting a new project solely for her, considering her a good luck charm. Now, with her departure, these netizens have voiced their concerns.
Neither Rashmika nor Venky Kudumula appears to have any issues with each other. The concerns seem to stem from netizens and their assumptions. If scheduling conflicts are indeed the true reason, it could present a challenge for Venky, who might need to proceed with Sreeleela for the film’s shoot.
