Rashmika in the movie

Congratulating Laxman and Vicky for being good partners on the sets, Rashmika wrote, “Laxman Utekar sir… I wonder how a man can manage such a big platform with at least 1,500 employees with peace of mind and confidence.”
“Sir, you see me as Yesubai when no one in the world will think about it and I really think how, not only me. The whole country will think how.. but watching these shows makes me cry… you got such a performance out of me that I can’t wait for the world to watch,” he wrote. Speaking to Vicky as Maharaj, Rashmika said she had a great time interacting with the actor. “It is a pleasure to work with you. You are very warm and kind (except the last day when you took my word for it) but most of the time you are surprised. I’m playing music. You are a gem. I will wish the best for you man. It was such a pleasure. My mom told me to send you my thanks (sic),” he added. The film is produced by Dinesh Vijan’s Maddock Films and is expected to hit the screens on December 6.
