Rashmika Mandanna and Salman Khan to Share the Screen in 'Sikandar'
National heartthrob Rashmika Mandanna, fresh from her performance opposite Ranbir Kapoor in 'Animal', has unveiled her next Hindi venture. The actress will grace the silver screen alongside Bollywood icon Salman Khan in 'Sikandar', marking their first collaboration.
The announcement sent social media into a frenzy, with fans expressing both excitement and curiosity. Mandanna's casting, revealed on her rumored boyfriend Vijay Deverakonda's birthday, came as a pleasant surprise for her followers.
While some raised concerns about the 30-year age gap between Mandanna (28) and Khan (58), the majority of users anticipated a box office triumph upon its Eid release next year. One enthusiastic fan tweeted, Blockbuster Loading.. Bring it on, while another exclaimed, This pairing will set the screens on fire.
The excitement stems not only from the star power of both actors but also their previous chemistry on-screen. The duo previously shared a stage on 'Bigg Boss' and a media event, where they danced together to 'Saami Saami' from 'Pushpa: The Rise'. Their undeniable chemistry left a lasting impression on audiences.
Mandanna's fans eagerly await their reunion in 'Sikandar', helmed by Sajid Nadiadwala and directed by Murugadoss Arunasalam. The actress has a busy year ahead, with several projects in the pipeline. Aside from 'Sikandar', she stars in the historical drama 'Chaava' with Vicky Kaushal and 'Pushpa 2: The Rule' with Allu Arjun. Mandanna will also lead two female-centric films titled 'Rainbow' and 'The Girlfriend'.
