Allu Arjun and Atlee’s upcoming film is creating waves with major casting surprises. While Deepika Padukone and Mrunal Thakur are confirmed, the shocker is Rashmika Mandanna playing a full-fledged villain, her first time in such a role. This marks her third collaboration with Allu Arjun after Pushpa.

Initially offered to Samantha, the antagonist role now goes to Rashmika, who is training for action-packed scenes. The film, rumored to feature Allu Arjun in a triple role, may also include Hollywood star Will Smith in a key villainous part.
