National award-winning director Sekhar Kammula is currently engrossed in his pan-Indian movie Kubera, featuring Dhanush in the lead role. The film also stars Nagarjuna Akkineni in a crucial role, with Rashmika Mandanna, often referred to as the national crush, playing the female lead.
The makers recently unveiled Rashmika’s first look poster and a no-dialogue teaser, where she is seen in a striking and unusual avatar that has generated significant buzz among audiences. Her character is pivotal, serving as a bridge between the roles of veteran actors Dhanush and Nagarjuna.
The latest poster shows Rashmika’s character dressed in a pink suit and dragging a suitcase behind her, in what seems to be a deserted location.
