“National Crush” Rashmika Mandanna a few days ago sustained a severe leg injury while working out at the gym. Recently, she was spotted at the Hyderabad airport this morning as she prepared to travel to Mumbai for work commitments and to promote her upcoming Hindi film.
In a video captured at the airport, Rashmika appeared to struggle while getting out of the car. She limped and relied on her team for support as she made her way inside. Eventually, she had to sit in a wheelchair due to her inability to walk unassisted, but her team ensured she reached her flight on time.
A few days ago, Rashmika took to Instagram to share her experience with humor and optimism. In her post, she wrote, “Well… happy New Year to me I guess! Injured myself in my sacred gym shrine. Now I’m in “hop mode” for the next few weeks or months or god only knows, so seems like I’ll be hopping my way back to sets for Thama, Sikandar, and Kubera! To my directors sorry for the delay…I’ll be back soon enough just making sure my legs are fit for action (or at least fit for hopping) In the meantime if you need me…I’ll be the one in the corner doing a highly advanced bunny hop workout. HOP HOP HOP…”
Rashmika’s recent injury has temporarily halted filming for several of her projects, including ‘Sikandar’, where she stars alongside Bollywood superstar Salman Khan. This film is directed by AR Murugadoss and is set for release during Eid 2025. Additionally, Rashmika will be seen in ‘The Girlfriend’, co-starring Dheekshith Shetty and ‘Thama’ featuring with Ayushmann Khurrana
Currently, she is promoting her upcoming film, ‘Chhaava’, which is set to hit theaters on February 14, 2025. The film features Rashmika in the role of Maharani Yesubai, the wife of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, portrayed by Vicky Kaushal. Recently, the makers shared her first look, where she seen in an opulent traditional attire that highlights her royal character.
