Hyderabad: ‘Pushpa’ actress Rashmika Mandanna, who is rumoured to be dating Vijay Deverakonda, opened up about her partner and how life is incomplete without him.
During an interview with Cosmopolitan, Rashmika shared that her partner gives her comfort during tough times and makes her feel secure, without taking any name.
Asked who gives her comfort during tough times, Rashmika said, “My partner. I need my partner in every phase of my life. I need that comfort, security, and empathy.”
Hinting at being in a relationship, she said, “My most important thing in a relationship is definitely kindness, but also respect. When you mutually respect one another, genuinely care, and are responsible for one another…it all adds up. Being loving, empathetic, caring, having a good heart, and being truly genuine are the other traits I need because this is what comes naturally to me. I want to be with someone who has similar qualities and if my partner doesn’t have the same attachment style, we just won’t get along.”
Sharing what being in love means to her, Rashmika said, “Being in love to me means partnership and companionship. You need a companion in your life. After all, if you don’t have them then what’s the point of having this life? You need someone to witness all of your highs and lows, and someone to stand by your side and celebrate life with.”
After the release of her latest film ‘Pushpa 2: The Rule’, Rashmika was spotted on a movie date with Deverakonda’s family including his mother and brother.
