Actor Vijay Deverakonda has publicly expressed his admiration for Rashmika Mandanna’s performance in the debut song from her upcoming action drama, Mysaa. The track, titled O Mysaa Re, was released on Monday evening and features the actress in a dramatic, emotionally charged sequence that has garnered significant attention from fans and peers alike.
Sharing his reaction to the video on social media, Vijay lauded Rashmika's intense screen presence. In a message posted to his Instagram Stories, he described her performance with the affectionate term “Wildddd pillaa,” a Telugu endearment. Beyond the artistic merit of the sequence, Vijay highlighted the personal sacrifices made by the lead actress to achieve the final result. He acknowledged that the filming process was physically demanding, revealing that she had pushed herself to the point of suffering an injury to complete the performance.
Vijay expressed his belief that this role would mark another significant milestone in her career. “The song that you pushed yourself till an injury for. But will be another epic film in your filmography. Cannot wait to watch on the big screens,” he wrote, while tagging his wife in the post. The couple recently saw success with their previous collaboration, Ranabaali, which according to industry reports from Sacnilk, has crossed Rs 80 crore in worldwide gross collections.
In response to the public appreciation, Rashmika shared Vijay’s post, reciprocating the warmth while admitting to a mix of emotions ahead of the film's launch. “Vijjjjuuuuu!!!! I am so so soooo excited for this also extremely nervous!!” she remarked. The actress also took to the platform X to discuss the deeper thematic elements of the track, characterizing it as a raw expression of suffering and transformation rather than a typical musical release. She described the song as a “war cry” and a “scream of pain and rage” that signifies a moment of awakening for her character.
The song O Mysaa Re was composed by Jakes Bejoy and features lyrics penned by Suddala Ashok Teja, with vocals provided by Sindhuja Srinivasan. The video depicts an emotionally heavy atmosphere, with the lead character appearing to be moved by a divine force, performing powerful dance movements that align with the film's genre as an action drama.
Directed by Rawindra Pulle, Mysaa is slated for a theatrical release on November 27. The project features a broad supporting cast, including actors Easwari Rao, Rahul Ravindran, Samuthirakani, and Rao Ramesh. As the release date approaches, the anticipation surrounding the film continues to build, with audiences keen to see the result of the intense physical preparation described by the lead stars.
The film industry and fans have been closely following the promotional activities for Mysaa, particularly given the high-profile nature of its lead actress and the recent box office success of her work with Vijay. With the promotional campaign now in full swing, the focus remains on the upcoming premiere, where the cast hopes to replicate the positive reception seen in their previous joint ventures.
