Sukumar Calls Rashmika’s Acting Unforgettable in The Girlfriend Teaser!

Like a diamond that sparkles even in the rough, Rashmika Mandanna’s acting in The Girlfriend teaser shines through, catching the eyes of everyone who sees it. At a recent Hyderabad event for Pushpa 2, director Sukumar was left astounded by Rashmika’s stunning performance, proving once again why she’s a force to be reckoned with.

Maverick director Arya Sukku also couldn’t contain his admiration for Rashmika’s captivating presence in the teaser of The Girlfriend, directed by Rahul Ravindran. He revealed, “When I saw the teaser, I told Rahul, ‘Even if Rashmika’s shot was blurry, she would still stand out with her acting.’ Normally, directors avoid close-up shots if they aren’t perfect, but The Girlfriend teaser breaks all the rules. Even while editing Pushpa 2, I get frozen in the moment when I see Rashmika’s close-ups. I just can’t bring myself to cut them. She owns the script completely—our frequencies just align. I don’t have to say anything; she’s doing it effortlessly.”

Sukku’s praise for Rashmika speaks volumes, and it’s clear that her performance in The Girlfriend will leave an indelible mark. With the teaser still under wraps, we can only imagine the full brilliance that’s coming our way. So, as we wait for the official release, let’s just say: when it drops, we’re all going to be glued to the screen, obsessing over every frame-and yes, every close-up.
