After the incident came to light recently, reports said that she chose to handle the matter privately and immediately terminated his services. The actress chose not to publicly comment on the incident.
A source told Pinkvilla, "There is some chatter about Rashmika being duped of Rs. 80 lakh by her manager. Apparently, she didn't want to create a scene about it. Therefore, she dealt with it on her own by firing her manager."
However, sources close to the actress have denied the news, saying, ""The news of Rashmika Mandannaâs manager duping her for money and being fired is false and completely untrue. The actress was managed by her south manager for a long time. However now they have decided to amicably part ways for their own personal reasons."
