To reignite the famed leadership qualities in the community, author PT Bopanna has brought this idea to promote ‘role models’ by conducting an annual poll in 2005 to select a ‘Coorg Person of Year’. Bopanna further added saying, “Rashmika, who has become a household name through her acting and dancing skills, has emerged as an unofficial brand ambassador for Kodagu culture.”

Moreover, Rashmika completed her schooling at Coorg Public School, Gonikoppal, in Kodagu, before she went on to get a bachelor’s degree in Psychology, Journalism, and English Literature at M.S. Ramaiah College of Arts, Science, and Commerce in Bengaluru.

On the work front, apart from ‘Animal’, ‘Mission Majnu’ and ‘Varisu’, Rashmika will also be seen in the much-anticipated sequel of ‘Pushpa: The Rise’.
