Rashmika Mandanna is hoping to take some time off to return home for Diwali. While her plans are not set in stone, she is eagerly looking forward to the festivities. “I really hope I can go home for Diwali; it’s been a while since I’ve spent it with my family. That’s when I miss them the most,” she shared.
Her favorite part of the celebration? Cooking with family, especially making Koovale Putt, a dish from her hometown in Coorg. “It’s those small moments that truly enrich the festival experience,” she said.
Despite rumors swirling about her engagement to Vijay Deverakonda, Rashmika remains reserved about her personal life. She reflects on the gold jewellery collected over the years, not solely for weddings but as keepsakes infused with emotional value.
In reminiscing about past Dhanteras celebrations, Rashmika shared a poignant memory. “I recall one Dhanteras after making some money from films. It was a proud moment for me, as I purchased a chain and pendant for my mom, who has always been my lucky charm,” she recalled.
When asked about her preferences in jewellery, she replied, “I tend to favor delicate pieces that reflect my personality, rather than something extravagant.”
The jewellery she cherishes the most? A pair of earrings gifted by her mom during college. “They hold a lot of memories as they were my first pair; they are very special to me,” she expressed, adding a sentimental touch to her outlook.
Looking ahead, she announced that her film *Thamma* is set for release on Diwali, and the entire team is immersed in promotions. “This year feels particularly special. Thank you for all the love and support; it truly motivates me,” she concluded, reflecting her gratitude and excitement.
