Amid the viral deepfake video controversy, Rashmika Mandanna seems to have focused on her fitness and believes that every time someone tries to kill (harm) her, she comes back stronger.

This belief was reflected in the caption of the post, which showed Rashmika sweating out while doing some of the hardest exercise, literally killing her; however, she overcomes them to become strong and turn into a beast.

Sharing the video, Rashsmika wrote, “You know it’s a good day when you’ve gotten a good workout in... @junaid.shaikh88 these are some of the “easy” workouts you make me do no?  Thank you for killing me as always but I come back stronger... and cheers to even stronger tomorrows.”

In the video, Rashmika donning a black shorts and a full seleves brown crop top work out in an outdoor space. While her fitness instructor could be seen overseeing her every move as she over comes all the hardest way.

Meanwhile, Rashmika’s rumoured boyfriend and co-star Vijay Deverakonda has responded to the viral clip of Rashmika calling for stringent punishment.

Sharing a news article titled 'Government cracks down on deepfakes after viral Rashmika Mandanna video', Vijay wrote, "Extremely important steps for the future. This shouldn't happen to anyone. Also, an efficient accessible cyber wing for quick crackdowns and punishment will make people more secure.”

Notably, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology released a directive aimed at social media platforms after Rashmika's deepfake video gained widespread attention.

The government directive specified that individuals who engage in fraudulent activities through the impersonation of others using any communication device or computer resource will face penalties, including imprisonment for a period of up to three years and may also be subject to fines of up to one lakh rupees.
