In a special campaign video, the actor reflected on the dreams and ambitions that shaped her journey. The video also offers glimpses of her childhood.
Rashmika said, “Every journey begins with an opportunity and the courage to take that first step. When I look back at my own journey, I know how much it takes to keep believing in yourself, working hard and saying yes to possibilities that can take you somewhere you may never have imagined.”
Talking about the initiative by Hybe India, the Pushpa actor added, “Honestly, I think this is a first-of-its-kind opportunity in India, and I’m incredibly excited to be partnering with HYBE INDIA on this journey. HYBE is a name known for creating some of the biggest artists and global voices. There are so many young girls across the country who dream of becoming artists, performers and role models, and I hope they make the most of this opportunity.”
On a professional front, Rashmika was last seen in the romantic comedy Cocktail 2, which also starred Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon.
