Rashmika Mandanna recently found herself in a humorous mix-up, with people catching her artificial admiration for Vijay, which has been trending online.

During an interview, she expressed her love for Tamil superstar Vijay and revealed that the first film she watched in a theater was Ghilli, starring Vijay.

However, while elaborating, she mistakenly said that Ghilli was a remake of Mahesh Babu's Pokiri, which left netizens in splits.

Fans quickly pointed out that Ghilli is actually a remake of Mahesh Babu's Okkadu and not Pokiri. The interview clip went viral, and social media users teased Rashmika for the error.

Responding with her trademark charm, Rashmika took to "X" (formerly Twitter) and humorously apologized in Telugu, clarifying the mix-up.

She wrote, "Yes, I realized this after the interview ended. Ghilli is a remake of Okkadu, and Pokiri was remade in Tamil with the same title. By then, my mistake had already gone viral. Sorry, sorry… my bad! I genuinely love all their movies."

Many, however, felt that Rashmika's claim of being a die-hard Vijay fan seemed exaggerated. Fans questioned how she could confuse two iconic movies if she truly admired Vijay's work.

Meanwhile, Rashmika continues to dominate headlines, riding high on the success of Pushpa: The Rule, which has shattered records with an 1100 crore India gross.

She's also juggling multiple big-budget projects, including Chhava, Sikandar, The Girlfriend, and Kubera.
