Rashmika ma'am hails from Virajpet, a touristy town in the district of Coorg, coffee capital of India #HappyBirthdayRashmika
@iamRashmika

Rashmika ma'am has done her schooling at Coorg Public School, Gonikoppal. Most of Rashmika madam's childhood was in the boarding school and was a good student. Ma'am was an introvert growing up, quite opposite to what she is today #HappyBirthdayRashmika
@iamRashmika

Rashmika Ma'am never shied way from venturing into unknown spaces and that landed her in MICA, Mysore for her PUC. Apart from education ma'am excelled in extra curricular activities too in MICA #HappyBirthdayRashmika
@iamRashmika

After completing her PUC, Rashmika ma'am decided to step into the world of mega cities. Bengaluru it is. The ambitious spirit in ma'am was burning bright right from her childhood. At 16 stepped out of Coorg to Mysore and at 18 to Bengaluru all by herself #HappyBirthdayRashmika

Rashmika ma'am enrolled for BA in Psychology, Journalism and English Literature at M.S. Ramaiah College of Arts, Science and Commerce. This is where destiny called movies rubbed shoulders with @iamRashmika ma'am #HappyBirthdayRashmika

This is where @iamRashmika madam's teacher suggested her to participate in the Clean and Clear Times fresh face contest. Ma'am was skeptical about her prospects but decided to give it a try #HappyBirthdayRashmika @iamRashmika

Rashmika ma'am won the Bengaluru edition and it didn't stop there. In a nail biting finals "The Coorg girl" as the newspapers called won the fresh face contest at all India level. Ma'am received the award from Akshay Kumar #HappyBirthdayRashmika @iamRashmika

Rashmika ma'am went back to studies after the event and simultaneously tried her hand with modelling in Bengaluru. Films never crossed her mind even then #HappyBirthdayRashmika @iamRashmika

As destiny had it, in some other corner of Bengaluru Kirik Party team were looking for a fresh face to cast in their movie and who better than the Fresh face winner :). #HappyBirthdayRashmika @iamRashmika

Rashmika ma'am had an audition for the role of Sanvi and the makers knew it right away that she was the one. Rashmika ma'am was exactly what the team wanted, sweep the youth off their feet with the very first look #HappyBirthdayRashmika @iamRashmika

The movie turned out to be a huge hit and gave @iamRashmika ma'am the title #KarnatakaCrush. Film offers poured for ma'am and superstars lined up to cast ma'am in their movies #HappyBirthdayRashmika @iamRashmika

How many of you know that @iamRashmika ma'am prepared for her exams in KP sets? Rahsmika ma'am passed her exams in flying colors and earned the degree Bachelor of Arts. At 20, she was already a star but who knew she would go on to conquer entire South India #HappyBirthdayRashmika

After Kirik Party @iamRashmika ma'am signed a movie with super stars Ganesh sir and Puneeth Rajkumar sir. After Kirik Party there was almost an year gap and both the movies, Chamak and Anjaniputhraa released in December 2017 #HappyBirthdayRashmika @iamRashmika

I don't think @iamRashmika ma'am plans it that way but this has become a feature of her career. A lull followed by a storm of movies :). A long gap and then blockbusters over blockbusters #HappyBirthdayRashmika @iamRashmika

In between Kirik Party and the release of Chamak and Anjaniputhraa something momentous happened. @VenkyKudumula sir watching Kirik Party :). This brought @iamRashmika ma'am to Telugu Film Industry in the form of Chalo #HappyBirthdayRashmika @iamRashmika

Chalo release in February 2018 and became an instant hit and with that grew the legend of Rashmika madam's lucky hand and her impeccable story selection. When she was shooting for Chalo, ma'am also signed her biggest movie Geetha Govindam #HappyBirthdayRashmika @iamRashmika

Apparently as many as 20 actresses refused the role of Geetha before it finally fell into @iamRashmika madam's lap. As they say, when opportunity knocks your door embrace it tightly with both the hands and Rashmika ma'am exactly did that #HappyBirthdayRashmika @iamRashmika

Geetha Govindam is a huge movie for @iamRashmika ma'am in more than one way. What Kirik party did to ma'am in Karnataka, Geetha Govindam did the same in Telugu states. Movie lovers of all ages fell head over heels in love with Rashmika ma'am #HappyBirthdayRashmika @iamRashmika

Not just in Telugu states, Geetha Govindam grossed over $2 millions in USA making @iamRashmika ma'am a household name there too. The biggest surprise for me and probably for ma'am too is how Tamil audience embraced the movie and the character Geetha #HappyBirthdayRashmika

Everyone in Tamil Nadu knows that something big is going to hit the industry in the name of Rashmika Mandanna. It is just a matter of time before @iamRashmika ma'am debuts there and goes onto become one of the most popular actresses #HappyBirthdayRashmika @iamRashmika

When ma'am was shooting for Geetha Govindam she signed DevaDas and was cast opposite Nani. The movie also features Nagarjuna sir. It is a decent hit and ma'am cemented her place among the top echelons of Telugu actresses #HappyBirthdayRashmika @iamRashmika

#Yajamana released after Devadas and went on to break many records in Kannada. The movie showcased @iamRashmika ma'am as a village belle and it introduced a new facet of Rashmika ma'am to the world #HappyBirthdayRashmika @iamRashmika

Then came #DearComrade, the movie into which @iamRashmika ma'am has put her sweat and blood to play the character Lilly. This is probably the first off beat performance oriented role that ma'am attempted #HappyBirthdayRashmika

Every movie lover, especially girls saw themselves in Lilly and the Rashmika ma'am received innumerable letters on how Lilly made people bold, how Lilly encouraged them to speak out and how Lilly represents a quintessential Indian girl #HappyBirthdayRashmika @iamRashmika

#DearComrade didn't give the desired result at the box office but won many accolades for @iamRashmika ma'am. The movie is a huge hit on movie streaming platforms and the Hindi dubbed version is all set to cross 100M on Youtube #RashmikaMandanna

There was almost a 6 months gap post Dear Comrade and then came the biggest hit in @iamRashmika madam's career in the form of Sarileru Neekevvaru. Ma'am was cast opposite Mahesh Babu sir, arguably the most popular star in Telugu Film Industry #HappyBirthdayRashmika

Sarileru Neekevvaru went on to break many records and became the biggest hit in @iamRashmika madam's career. It is the first 200Cr grosser in Rashmika madam's career and the second $2 million movie in USA #HappyBirthdayRashmika

After Sarileru Neekevvaru, @iamRashmika ma'am team up with Venky sir for the second time to give us a laugh riot in #Bheeshma. Sadly, the movies run was cut short due to Corona Virus but it was a big hit by then and earned handsome profits for everyone #HappyBirthdayRashmika

The upcoming release of @iamRashmika ma'am are #Pogaru in Kannada opposite Dhruva Sarja sir and the must awaited debut in Tamil opposite Karthi sir in #Sultan. Ma'am will shortly start her shoot for #AA20 #HappyBirthdayRashmika @iamRashmika
