The world of Pushpa, through the two parts that it was made in, went on for five long years. The first part commenced production in 2019 and now, the second part completed production only yesterday.
On this matter, Rashmika Mandanna who had been occupied with this project over the last five years has an emotional note to share.
“24th evening after an entire day of shoot we took a flight to Chennai and we had such a lovely event in Chennai. Flew back the same night back to Hyderabad
My whole day till late went in shoot.. and I knew it was my last day but somehow it didn’t feel like the last day you know… like hmm I don’t know how to say
Out of the 7/8 years Last 5 years being on this set almost made this set my home in the industry and finally it was my last day.. of course there’s still so much work left and apparently a part 3 but it felt different. it felt overwhelming.” Rashmika stated on her Instagram story.
it felt like it was ending.. some sort of sadness that even I didn’t understand and suddenly all the emotions came together and the days of extreme hard work came rushing back to me and.. I was feeling tired, exhausted but at the same time so grateful.
I was going to miss everyone so much.. and all of the feelings together.. and I broke down so bad after so long. but I didn’t even understand why I was reacting that way.. but it’s crazy of how when you work so closely with such incredible people how much you get attached to them subconsciously.” She concluded.
