New Delhi:

Rashmika Mandanna has been the national crush for years now and for good reason. The actress is a treat to watch on-screen and enjoys a tremendous fan following across social media platforms. The love that comes Rashmika’s way is in large part due to how raw and real the star keeps it on Instagram and otherwise. A case in point is the actress’ latest post, in which she has shared four images of herself at her candid best. The images feature her in a house, bereft of any makeup, sipping on coffee and working in the kitchen. “I don’t really remember when this was shot but other than being an actor… I think these are the four pictures [that] just describe me as ME!” she wrote in the caption.

Explaining what the pictures mean to her, Rashmika Mandanna added, “They say na – that pictures can speak a thousand words. It such does. I don’t remember when these were taken but I think I remember the feeling I had when these were taken…so well this is me in my own lil world.”

“It makes me feel calm, looking at these pictures. It’s so strange but love it,” Rashmika Mandanna wrote, concluding her caption.

Rashmika Mandanna also shared the images on her Instagram Stories with the caption, “Just life,” with a heart emoji.

A few days ago, Rashmika Mandanna posted a beautiful picture of herself with a cheeky caption that said, “Whoever blinks first loses.”

Before that, on the occasion of Friendship Day, Rashmika Mandanna shared a series of pictures of her friends, including those not in the film industry. Tagging her pals – actor Vijay Deverakonda makes an appearance too – Rashmika Mandanna said, “I am not someone who generally takes friendship day, hug day, chocolate day or Valentine’s Day very seriously, and I am not someone who puts my personal life out a lot… but these people in these photos (some are missing). It’s a surprise for them too!”

Rashmika added, “But I just randomly wanted to say how important these people are in my life… I wouldn’t be the same person without them…Some who I grew up with, some who I work with, some who I am not in touch with very much but they have still managed to make a mark so deep in my heart that they will always and forever be special! So you guys I love you.”
