Actress Rashmika Mandanna has written a long post to elaborate on the reason behind not taking “ownership” of Animal's success which featured her in a pivotal role.

Rashmika has been missing from action ever since the movie, which hit the theatres on December 1, hit the success button.

Rashmika also posted her images but did not reveal her looks as she said it was part of her upcoming project.

"Hi guys! Can’t show my full face as it’s a new film look, and I can’t reveal it before my film team does, as always. But the shoots are going really well - just wanted to let you all know," she wrote on Instagram.

She wrote: "Also, another thing that I wanted to just talk about is the topic that was going around saying ‘she’s not taking ownership of her success and all that’."

Speaking on her actions post Animal success, she said: "I know it comes from a place of love, concern, and worry . We have delivered a massive film, and people loved it and appreciated it. I too wanted to take some time out to enjoy it, as every one of us wants to, but I was back on set the next day of my film release (being the amazing workaholic that I am ), and hence I was and am unable to do a lot of interviews or events out there."

" I am having to do these overnight travels for work, and I am shooting for some of the biggest and most intense films in my career .And as you’ll know, I can’t really reveal the look before my film teams do, and hence I am unable to take photos or post some posts or go live as per yours or my wishes," she said.

She said: "And I know you’ll are missing me and so am I , but I know for sure that when the films DO release, I know you’ll all be super duper happy, and it’s all gonna be worth it!!"

The actress said: "And now coming to ownership of the success .. Guys, your love, the messages to me are what make me happy and keep me going honestly, and I saw them in abundance; and again thank you so much for all the love.. always."  

Animal craze

Animal, directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, emerged as one of the biggest hits of 2023.

The movie raked in over Rs. 800 crore at the Box Office, making it one of the biggest hits of the year.

Apart from Ranbir Kapoor and Rashmika, the movie featured Triptii Dimri, Anil Kapoor, and Bobby Deol
