Bollywood has revived lucky mascot magic, says Kona Venkat

Top Telugu actresses like Samantha doing the Hindi series ‘Family Man 2’ and ‘Honey Bunny’, while Rashmika Mandanna has proved her mettle in ‘Animal’ and doing another big film ‘Sikandar’ with Salman Khan. Sai Pallavi has completed a Hindi film with Junaid Khan, son of Aamir Khan, which is touted to be a love story and also plays Goddess Sita in the Hindi film ‘Ramayan’. “Telugu actresses are back in the reckoning in Bollywood and they are going to have a great time,” says producer-writer Kona Venkat and adds, “Bollywood has always believed that Telugu and south actresses bring some luck and hailed them as lucky mascots.

Rashmika has begun with blockbuster ‘Animal’ and more hits on the anvil from other divas too," he adds..
