Rashmika on trolls

In a conversation with Keerthika Govindhasamy on her YouTube channel, the actress opened up about getting trolled. She said, “Personally, I feel that kindness is not weakness, and I am someone who wants to be kind because there are a lot of negative feelings that are going around. I want to believe in kindness and bring some kind of positivity. Even if people call that overacting, it’s fine. Not everyone is everyone’s cup of tea. I choose to be like this, and I am very happy being like this because this is just me. I don’t have to pretend to do this; this is real. I can’t fake it to make someone happy. I feel like this is keeping me happy, my family happy, friends and well-wishers.”
