Ashika Ranganath Says Strong Roles Matter More Than Pairings

Ashika Ranganath made a splash in Tollywood with Naa Saami Ranga, playing Varamahalakshmi “Varalu.” Her character, smart, independent, handling her father’s business and family drama while keeping her own head high, got people talking. Fans loved how she held her own on screen, proving a heroine can really steal the show if the role is right.
She’s done plenty in Kannada films too, picking stories that give her space to shine. Now, she’s back in Telugu with two big projects. One is Vishwambhara with Megastar Chiranjeevi, set for a summer release. The other is Bharatha Mahashayulaku Vignapthi, paired with senior hero Ravi Teja. It’s refreshing to see her work with legends while choosing roles that matter, not just worrying about age or pairing.
Ashika explained her approach: “I care about the role above everything. A strong story and a good chance to act? That’s enough for me. Who I’m paired with isn’t the priority. Story is the hero. Being on set with legends like Chiranjeevi, Nagarjuna, and Ravi Teja is a blessing.” She’s clearly selective and knows her worth.
Buzz is already building for Bharatha Mahashayulaku Vignapthi. The song Bella Bella is trending, and her modern, role-driven look has fans talking. With smart choices and performances that stick, Ashika is slowly but surely carving out her own space in Tollywood, showing that talent and strong roles always win over just screen pairings.
