Rashmika Mandanna has created a frenzy on the internet with the dramatic first-look poster of her new film Mysaa, which she unveiled on Friday through social media. Calling it her “fiercest avatar yet,” the actress indicated a dramatic makeover and an assertive new phase in her acting career.
In the dramatic poster, Rashmika is half-covered, with blood marks on her face and body, symbolizing a raw intensity. Wearing a traditional saree with tribal-patterned jewelry, she adds the finishing touches to the look with a characteristic moon-shaped bindi, adding to the cultural and emotional richness of the character. Her intense stare and untamed look portend a gritty, action-oriented story.
In an emotional Instagram post, Pushpa and Animal star spoke about her attachment to the role:

“I always attempt to provide you with something new… something different… something exciting… And this is one of those. A person that I have never played before… a world that I have never entered… and a me that even I had not met until now. It’s fierce… it’s intense and it’s very raw. I am extremely nervous and super excited.”
Mysaa is said to be an emotional action thriller where Rashmika essays a woman belonging to the Gond community. The movie is a dramatic departure for the actress, as she plays a character that is based in culture and emotion, lightyears away from the glamorous on-screen avatars she has essayed so far. Rawindra Pulle has directed the film and Ajay and Anil Sayyapureddy have produced it. The film has thus far maintained much secrecy regarding its plot.
