10 Songs where Rashmika Mandanna’s smile stole the show

Ever since Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna tied the knot on February 26, 2026, we have been soaking in every little update and moment from their dreamy wedding. After years of rumours, sweet sightings, and endless fan theories, seeing the two finally begin this new chapter together was nothing short of special for everyone who had rooted for them all along. Their wedding became one of the most talked-about moments, and understandably so.

And now, just when the wedding excitement hasn’t even fully settled, there’s another lovely occasion around the corner, that's Rashmika Mandanna’s birthday. Starting from being called the “National Crush” to winning hearts across industries, Rashmika has built a place for herself not just with her performances, but also with that infectious charm and ever-glowing smile that we simply can’t get enough of.

So, on her birthday, what better way to celebrate her than by revisiting some of the songs where Rashmika’s smile truly stole the show and left us completely smitten?

Endhayya Saami

Released on February 28, just days after Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna’s wedding, Endhayya Saami instantly became extra special for fans. More than just a fresh musical update, it also marked the couple’s first on-screen announcement together after marriage, making it one of the sweetest additions to their journey so far.

Sung beautifully by Shweta Mohan and composed by Ajay-Atul, the track gives a glimpse into the characters, Ranabaali and Jayamma, in the upcoming film. But beyond the film itself, what really stands out is the comfort and ease Rashmika and Vijay share on screen.

Yenti Yenti – Geeta Govindam

With Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna's wedding approaching, it feels right to put Yenti Yenti on top of the list. Geeta Govindam is the moment it all began. Sung by Chinmayi Sripaada, composed by Gopi Sundar with lyrics by Sri Mani, the track captured Rashmika’s effortless charm and the pair’s playful dynamic, the kind that now has us linking reel romance to real-life speculation.

Kadalalle – Dear Comrade

If Geeta Govindam sparked the craze, Dear Comrade deepened it. Vijay Devarakonda and Rashmika's chemistry intensified in this movie Kadalalle, composed by Justin Prabhakaran and sung by Sid Sriram and Aishwarya Ravichandran, leaned into an intense, emotionally layered connection between the two actors.


Laayi Le – The Girlfriend

Breezy, dreamy, and impossibly feel-good, Laayi Le is the kind of song you put on when you're in a good mood and want to stay there. Sung by Kapil Kapilan and composed by Hesham Abdul Wahab, the track captures the slow-burn chemistry between Bhooma and Vikram. Rashmika brings a lightness to it that just fits, like the song was written keeping her energy in mind.

Satranga – Animal

Arijit Singh singing, Ranbir Kapoor on screen, and still, it's Rashmika's moment that everyone talks about. The karwa chauth scene, that one look when she breaks her fast, her smile in that frame alone could carry the whole song. Some performances are technically good. This one just felt real, and that made all the difference.

Jaane Tu – Chhaava

AR Rahman composing, Arijit Singh singing, Vicky Kaushal opposite her, Jaane Tu had a lot going for it already. But Rashmika brought something quieter and more complex to it. The kind of grace that doesn't announce itself but slowly takes over the whole frame.


Hua Main – Animal

Sung by Raghav Chaitanya with music by Pritam, Hua Main was the softer, more intimate side of Animal. And Rashmika leaned into that completely. Every glance, every small gesture, it all synced with the rhythm in a way that felt less like acting and more like feeling.

Srivalli – Pushpa

Pushpa was Allu Arjun's film through and through, but Srivalli, sung with full energy by Javed Ali belonged equally to Rashmika. She brought charisma and elegance to a character who could've easily been overshadowed by the film's larger-than-life hero. Instead, every look and every smile she threw in that song made Srivalli feel like someone you actually root for.


Beautiful – Goodbye

Sung by Amit Trivedi with lyrics by Swanand Kirkire, Beautiful was a soft, carefree number and Rashmika walked into it like she'd been doing Hindi films forever. That freebird energy, that effortless smile, it was the first time Hindi audiences really saw what the South already knew.

Saami Saami – Pushpa

The Hindi version, sung by Sunidhi Chauhan, brought Saami Saami to a whole new audience. And from the very first frame, Rashmika commanded attention without doing anything over the top. The way she matched the beats, the expressions that shifted with every lyric it turned a peppy dance number into something you genuinely couldn't look away from.
