After the success of Thamma and The Girlfriend, pan-India actor Rashmika Mandanna is all set to star in the upcoming film, Mysaa. On Wednesday, the makers of the film dropped the first teaser featuring Mandanna in a never-before-seen avatar.
The teaser opens on a dark, grim forest setting amid what appears to be an aftermath of violent clash. It underscores themes of pain, survival and rage, before transitioning into a voiceover by a mother who speaks of her daughter’s refusal to bow to others. Promising a deeply emotional narrative, the action-packed entertainer introduces Mandanna in a raw, intense avatar, as she unleashes anger, courage and undying determination, leading to a brutal confrontation.
Sharing the teaser, Rashmika Mandanna wrote on Instagram, “Mysaa. This is just the tip of the tip of the ice berg.
