Raashii Khanna: Was not taken seriously in South; some rejected me saying I was 'too pretty for the role' - #BigInterview

Raashii Khanna is basking in the success of her first Hindi web series ‘Rudra: The Edge of Darkness’, co-starring Ajay Devgn. The actress will soon rub shoulders with Sidharth Malhotra and Disha Patani in Dharma Productions' 'Yodha'. But unlike popular perception, 'Yodha' isn't her Bollywood debut. Raashii first appeared on the big screen alongside John Abraham in ‘Madras Café’ in 2013 and delivered a convincing role as Major Vikram Singh’s wife, Ruby Singh.

After a smooth Bollywood debut, Raashii jumped straight to foray into the South film industry and tasted instant success with her critically acclaimed Tollywood debut ‘Oohalu Gusagusalade’, co-starring Naga Saurya. And then there was no looking back as she went on to work with some of the biggest names in the industry.
