THT Report • October 14, 2026
Indian actress Rashmika Mandanna has announced an initiative to support 400 families by providing them with essential groceries for three months at a time over the next year.
Rashmika shared a video on social media showing grocery packages being distributed to the families of her support staff. She hopes the assistance will help them reduce their household expenses and save money for the future.
The actress said she had initially wanted to keep the initiative private. However, she later decided to share it publicly to encourage others to help people in need.
Rashmika said the smiles of the families made all her hard work, sleepless nights, injuries and struggles worthwhile.
She was inspired to launch the initiative while playing Jayamma, the wife of warrior Ranabali, in the upcoming film “Ranabaali.” The film, co-starring her husband Vijay Deverakonda, is set against the backdrop of a devastating famine during British rule.
