The actress also shared a video on Instagram and spoke in length about finding hope and remaining positive during the pandemic. "Hey guys, I hope you are keeping safe in these crazy, unpredictable times. Covid has challenged us in ways we could have never imagined, and we weren't prepared for something like this. Sudden changes in our daily lives, coupled with anxiety and uncertainty which is overwhelming for a lot of you and has been extremely overwhelming for me personally. It took me a while to digest the fact that it was happening all over again," Rashmika said.

"But in times like this, what I have realised is it is better to stay positive, and with a positive mind, we are a step closer to winning this war. I was thinking for the next couple of weeks, I wanted to highlight a few stories of our ordinary heroes doing extraordinary stuff which has given me hope and put a smile on my face. It has made me realise that when we are fighting with something like this, there is absolutely no barrier of language or where they are from, which is amazing and makes me extremely proud. I am doing this to bring a smile on your face and give a little hope and thank these heroes personally," she concluded.
On the work front, Rashmika has become a household name in the Telugu and Tamil industry, with films like 'Dear Comrade' and 'Geetha Govindam'. She is all set to make her debut in the Hindi film industry with 'Mission Majnu' and Amitabh Bachchan-starrer 'Goodbye'.
